Training

What to expect while Training with Annie:

• Private, 1:1 Training
• Personalized Program
• Lessons Tailored to You and Your Dog
• Day and Evening Appointments Available (M – F)
• Training Location of Your Choice

Let’s get started:

• Puppy Manners / Training
• Get your puppy off to a great start - foundation work, focus work, crate manners, door manners, polite greeting, house training, socialization, confidence building plus more.
• Basic / Advanced Obedience
• Is your dog new to obedience? Does he need a “leash tune-up”? Practice heel, side, loose leash walking, sit, down, stand, come, stay, release and other options – your choice!
• Behavior Modification
• Does your dog jump on people? Pull while walking? Bark at the neighbors? Counter surf? Growl at you, your spouse, the grandkids? Have accidents in the house? Replace these unwanted behaviors with a positive option!
• Hand Signals
• Add an additional way to communicate with your dog! Develop a hand signal for each verbal command – your dog learns to respond to both.
• Directional Work
• Challenge your dog both mentally and physically – your dog works on a “baseball field” of low tables for bases. Your dog moves in the direction of the base you choose, "hups" onto the table and waits for the next direction from you. Want to raise the bar? We can add obedience commands while on the base or toy and food distractions between bases!
• Home Agility / Confidence Building
• No agility equipment? No problem! Your dog will have fun safely navigating obstacles “built” from items you probably have in your garage such as planks, cinder blocks and landscaping blocks. We’ll work up to combining obedience and agility so you can exercise your dog on items at your local park or playground.
• Canine Learning Theory
• This group class is offered for clients who want to learn the “why” behind the “how” – it’s a fun, interactive class for you and your dog.
