What Your Dog Will Learn:
Household Manners: Polite greetings, door etiquette, and refraining from counter-surfing.
Impulse Control: Mastering commands like leave it, engaging in calm chewing, and reducing excessive barking.
Advanced Commands: Extended sit/down and stay, structured heel and leash walking, reliable recall, even amidst distractions, and name recognition to ensure attentiveness.

Two in-person handover sessions will equip you with the tools to maintain success. Additionally, you'll have access to digital guides and ongoing trainer support for continued progress.
Is This Program Right for Your Dog?
This program is ideal for dogs who:
Pull on walks or ignore commands.
Bolt through doors or jump on guests.

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.
