Private Training
Not enough time in the day to train your dog? Let us do it! Training is not your thing? Thats ok! You’re busy and didn't get a dog to be a dog trainer! After an initial consult with you and your dog, we’ll come to your home while you are at work and train for you. Some transfer will be necessary so you can “drive” but we can install or modify behaviors for you. This training provides valuable mental enrichment to keep your dog engaged and happy while you are out and will help build good canine manners. We will keep you posted on progress between sessions. This can be a good way to give your dog some activity and enrichment in the middle of a day you are gone for long hours. Pricing is the same as one on one training. Training that fits this style of session well:
Fear and anxiety
Loose leash walking
Recall and off leash skills
Manners and obedience
Prep for outdoor adventures - skiing, biking, hiking, paddle boarding etc.
Day Training
Our basic manners class builds on what you learn in puppy class and is designed to support you through your dog’s adolescence, an often challenging period! We will work to refine your dog’s manners by building a solid recall, practicing leash walking skills, teaching a stay, working around distractions and more.
Basic Manners
We’ll meet in your home or at another appropriate location for personal one on one training to address the needs of you and your dog. At an initial consult we discuss your goals, your dog’s relevant history then proceed working through a tailored, step by step training plan.

Classes
We teach small classes for puppies 8- 16 weeks old (exceptions made for some small breeds) with a focus on socialization to other puppies, humans, objects, noises and body handling, in addition to basic obedience training. Puppies form their impressions of the world in their critical socialization period before they are 16 weeks old. We want to make sure they form positive associations with the things they will encounter in their life so that they are friendly and confident dogs. During puppy class we will guide you through this process and have fun while we are at it! Plenty of puppy play will be facilitated!

We also offer wedding dog handling and lunch and learn sessions for your dog friendly office.
There is no guarantee in animal training. While we offer our best prognosis, the unpredictable nature of animals and a wide range of variables in a dog’s world makes it impossible to guarantee outcomes. In fact we believe it would be unethical to do so. For challenging cases we may require a minimum number of sessions in order to maximize the potential for success.
