Basic obedience training focuses on teaching and positively reinforcing a variety of basic commands including:

​

• Sit

• Stay

• Down

• Come

• Focus

• Off

• Leave it

​

Another primary focus of basic obedience is loose leash walking, during which your dog walks in a relaxed and natural manner without pulling or jerking. Dogs will also learn how to politely greet guests at the door during basic obedience.

​Advanced obedience includes:

​

• Off leash recall

• Sit, stay, down with multiple distractions present

• Distance commands

• Following commands in owner's absence

• Performing difficult tasks such as picking up keys, turning on and off lights, opening and closing doors

It's no secret that dogs can get away with mischief with a pair of sad eyes or a wag of a tail. However, our furry friends can sometimes wreak havoc on our homes, limit where we can walk with them, or create issues with neighbors. There is a wide range of behavior modifications and we address them all with force free training methods that are backed by behavioral science. Some examples of behaviors to change include:

​

• Jumping

• Pulling

• Counter surfing

• Incessant barking

• Separation anxiety

• Aggression 

• Reactivity

• Accepting a friendly stranger

• Sitting politely for petting

• Appearance and calmness for grooming

• Walking in a pattern

• Walking through a crowd

• 20-foot sit and down stays

• Coming when called

• Reaction to another dog

• Reaction to distraction

• Supervised separation for three or more minutes
