In-Home Dog Training Program
Quality obedience training where you and your dog feel most comfortable.
Discover Our In-Home Training Program
Our In-Home Training Program offers a distinctive approach to dog training by providing expert guidance in the comfort of your home, allowing clients to choose between two balanced training methods for general obedience: with the use of an e-collar or without. Both options follow a training philosophy that reinforces positive behaviors while addressing inappropriate actions through corrections. The e-collar option streamlines the process, requiring seven sessions, while the traditional method involves a longer commitment of ten sessions, necessitating more time and patience. Despite the differences in approach, both options focus on the same fundamental discipline, ensuring flexibility for our clients to select the training that best aligns with their needs. All In-Home training packages include 6 months of Group Classes after the dog graduates from the training program.
General Obedience Commands
Our commitment to training goes beyond the basic obedience commands as we prioritize strengthening the bond between the owner and their dog while addressing any unacceptable behaviors.
Come (Recall)
A lifesaver in so many situations! Teaching your dog to reliably come when called ensures they return to you no matter the distractions. The goal? A strong recall where your dog comes close enough for you to easily grab their collar.
Off
Whether it’s jumping on guests, grabbing things they shouldn’t, or engaging in unwanted behaviors, this command tells your dog to stop immediately. It’s an effective way to redirect them without confusion.
Sit
A fundamental cue that teaches your dog to place their rear on the ground. Unlike traditional training that requires a separate “stay” command, your dog learns to remain seated until released or given another instruction—making training clearer and more efficient.
Heel
No more pulling on the leash! This command ensures your dog walks right at your side, matching your movement. Whether you stop, turn, or change pace, your dog should stay focused and adjust accordingly.
Load
This command teaches your dog to jump into a vehicle and stay inside until released—a great way to make travel and transportation stress-free.
Down
Similar to “sit,” this command guides your dog to lie down with their belly on the ground. They’ll stay in this position until directed otherwise, reinforcing patience and self-control.
Break
Think of this as a “free time” cue! It lets your dog know they’re no longer bound to the previous command and can relax or move around freely.
Place
Need your dog to stay put? This command directs them to get onto an object—like a mat, bed, or platform—and remain there until given another instruction. Great for maintaining structure, even in busy environments!
