Group Classes
Group Classes are a popular starting point for dogs without behavioral issues who are in need of some basic obedience training or want to try other activities such as agility. Unlike many training centers, we keep our classes very small to ensure that you and your dog can get the benefits of a group setting without sacrificing a more personalized feel and time for individual problem solving.
Private Lessons
Private Lessons are a popular choice for owners who want one-on-one training, have a dog with mild to moderate behavioral issues, have different training goals than what our group classes offer, or need a more flexible schedule than the group classes offer. In Private lessons, we can really focus in on your specific goals for your dog, rather than being limited by a class curriculum.
Board and Train
Board and Train programs are most popular for behavioral cases such as reactivity, aggression, resource guarding, separation anxiety, etc. However, some busy owners find value in the Board and Train program even for basic obedience. In a Board and Train, we will do the “heavy lifting” of the training and will coach you on how to continue or maintain the training after the program.

Evaluations and Consultations
Evaluations and Consultations are designed to help people determine which class or training program is an appropriate starting point for them and their dog.
Additional Services
Day Training
Day Training can be a valuable option in certain cases to get the benefits of having training done directly by a professional trainer, without the financial or time commitment of a board and train.
Day training is most frequently used in the case of dog-on-dog socialization for addressing reactivity or aggression, but may be implemented along with other training programs to help you meet your goals for your dog. Dogs get dropped off in the morning, board with us for the day, receive training sessions throughout the day (owners can choose between 1, 2, or 3 sessions), and get picked up in the afternoon/evening.
Daycare
Participation in our Daycare program is an excellent opportunity for dogs to get out of the house and receive personalized activity targeting each individual dog’s social, mental, and physical needs. Dogs can participate in group play activities with their canine friends, and/or individual activities.
Daycare is available once a week on Wednesdays.
Drop off is between 7-9am and pick up between 4-6pm.
Multiple daycare options are available based on the energy level of your dog and the owner’s budget!
Dogs can attend on a recurring schedule, or irregularly as long as we have openings!
Training Club
Our Training Club is a great opportunity for ongoing training with your dog. The Club will meet approximately once a week, typically on weekends, but we will try to add weekday training options when possible, as well.
Owners can choose to pay an annual membership fee, or pay a drop-in fee each time they attend.
There is no formal class/instruction at club training days, however, members are always welcome to ask questions, ask for feedback, and collaborate on training ideas!
Boarding
NOTE: Boarding is NOT consistently available.
Boarding MAY be available to current clients on a case-by-case basis. Boarding can often be accommodated for past or current clients on weekdays Monday-Friday. Weekend boarding is rarely available.
Online Learning
We have a few options for online/virtual learning, including two of our group classes (Puppy and Dogmanship 1) available in an online format through Facebook groups, and options for virtual private lessons through Facetime or Zoom.
