Basic Obedience One-On-One or Boardwalk Training1:

Basic Obedience Training is a service commonly requested among pet owners. This is a 5-week2 course that meets once per week at your home. The primary owner must participate in the training and all other family members are strongly encouraged to participate in order for the training to be successful. For the basic obedience course all commands will be taught with the dog on a leash. The graduate of the basic obedience AND advanced obedience course will be able to demonstrate the following:

Heel: The dog will walk on your left-hand side with no pulling and no sniffing the ground.

Automatic Sit: The dog will sit whenever you stop.

Stay: The dog will stay regardless of distractions until your release him/her from the command.

Down: The dog will completely submit and lay down.

Come:  The most important command; the dog will eagerly return to you if you always call using a happy, exciting, and cheerful tone.

In addition, during the 5 weeks of training we will also address issues such as: housebreaking, separation anxiety, eating disorders, destructive behavior, play, biting, excessive barking, etc.

Advanced Obedience:

Basic Obedience is a pre-requisite. Advanced obedience graduates will be able to demonstrate the same commands listed under Basic Obedience but they will do so off-leash and with hand signals in lieu of verbal commands.

1. Boardwalk Training is when your dog is removed from its environment and is trained with Basic Obedience with me one-on-one at my home. At the end of approximately 2 weeks (training time is dependent on the individual dog) your dog will return to your home with the knowledge of the commands and I will work with the owner on 1 occasion prior to graduation as well as 1 other occasion on graduation day.

2. Typically basic obedience is a 5-week course, it may however take longer depending on the individual dog and the comprehension of the family as well as the use and acquisition of different tools required for the dog to excel at the commands.
