We Train
All Breeds

 

 

 

 



Our GROUP CLASSES include six one-hour sessions held once each week
for the course price of

$120.00 including many extras.

We provide ONE ON ONE BEHAVIORAL COUNSELING at no extra charge.

This means:
You can CALL at any time: day, night, weekends, etc.
Once you COMMIT to us, we are COMMITTED to YOU.
You will get HELP/INSTRUCTIONS even before your classes start.

All household members are encouraged to participate in the training.

We teach YOU to train your dog and get the CONTROL and RESPECT
from your dog while ENJOYING your dog.

You will be learning "off lead verbal control" -- where the leash becomes a
FORMALITY and not a NECESSITY.

1. BASIC CLASSES (w/Graduation):

Basic classes include graduation at the end. Dogs of all ages can be taught these AMERICAN KENNEL CLUB (AKC) exercises: HEEL, SIT, SIT STAY, STAND, STAND STAY, DOWN, DOWN STAY, RECALL and FINISH (and many socialization exercises). In the first five minutes of the first Basic class, the handlers are taught how to control their dog on a loose lead and collar.

Handlers need a properly-fitted collar (some dogs and puppies may be able to use a regular buckle collar or a "martingale collar"). A 6-ft leash, NOT CHAIN or RETRACTABLE, is required in order to do all of the exercises during the entire course.

Please bring current shot records for your dog to the first class.

Please note: Puppies must be at least 12 weeks old at the start of the first class!

Please call 301-345-6999 and schedule a date and time to join one of our classes.

What to Bring to the first Class

Training collar, six foot cloth or nylon lead, and current vaccination records (especially Rabies).
