Obedience Boost

Mini Retreat

7 days(10 where necessary) to boost a couple of vital commands you are struggling with and to get your training program off the right foot 

Sometimes all you need is a little professional help for a boost in your training,  to get you right on track.  Your dog will be immersed into our structured exercise, treadmill introduction, play and daily management program to teach good dog behaviors. Your dog will learn how we communicate and how to follow the rules to get the rewards while working on learning the behaviors and polishing off 1-2 commands.  

Great way to teach off leash recalls, crate train, barking, focus, or other things you need extra help with.  

This can also work wonders as a jump start if you plan on continuing with day school,  taking lessons, or even by itself for extra help, you wont believe the transformation because we will teach you an your dog how to understand each other and move the relationship forward!

Behavior Modification

for fearful/aggressive dogs with bite history or severe anxiety

This is often the last chance where all else failed, if you don't want to give up, we will walk the path with you to rehabilitate.

Anxiety, aggression, stressful reactions and other behavioral issues are addressed in this 5 - 6 weeks long program, where nothing else has worked we can help and stabilize the dog to his or her best potential and ability and will teach you how to manage your dog moving forward.

This takes highly skilled professional training, often with more than one trainer involved working with the dog at the same time to mitigate potential bite risk injuries, and takes a longer period of time to earn the dog's trust so that he or she can learn manners and obedience while working on coping with behavioral issues.

We understand how traumatic it is to be bit by your dog, or to be worried about the safety of others around... We will try our hardest to step in and help you as soon as possible by making emergency room in the camp schedule.
