Advanced Dog Obedience
Program

Description

In this training program we take the basic obedience programs to the next level. Now that your dog knows the ropes, we can start to further work on the skills needed to build focus and greater impulse control in different real-world settings like parks, busy streets, coffee shops or in some cases public transport. This is also a great program for dogs looking to fine tune some skills before completing their Canine Good Citizen (CGC) exam. All dogs enrolling in this program need to have attended and completed a basic obedience program in the past. Your trainer will begin by working on obedience skills, like greetings, walking in public with other people and dogs around, giving them the opportunity to make a mistake and learn what’s expected in that situation. After your dog comes home, your trainer will go over the necessary handling skills during your lesson. You will be able to tackle things like, walking your dog off-leash (where permitted and safe), stay in place at a distance until released, and know your dog will come to you when called.

Frenquently Asked Questions

  • Where will my dog be staying?
    arrow
    Dogs stay in our certified trainer's homes. Each dog will have access to ample exercise, treats, toys and tons of training and love.
  • How much will training cost?
    arrow
    Prices vary depending on the duration, type of training, and needs of each dog. We'd be happy to talk you through our programs and identify the right option for you and your furry family member.
  • Will my dog be training alone?
    arrow
    Most of our expert trainers typically have 2-3 additional dogs at one time. This offers an enriching experience for your dog as they are able to socialise and also learn from other dogs. All dogs are closely supervised and trainers have years of experience managing all types of dogs, ages, behavioral issues etc. They are always able to keep your dog safe and happy.
  • How long are the programs?
    arrow
    Basic obedience programs are 2-4 weeks, with Anxiety and Aggression cases typically needing 4-6 weeks. There are, however, exceptions to every rule and we always want to evaluate each case individually. You can learn more about all programs we offer by contacting a pet consultant or viewing our full list of programs.
  • Does my dog have to go away?
    arrow
    Board and train programs are what we specialize in. It offers a fully immersive experience for dogs in order to truly change behaviors. Although this is a great start, and particularly effective for busy pet parents, continuing education with your dog afterward will also be important. We make sure you have the knowledge to keep working from home.
  • How fast can you schedule training?
