Basic Behavior Training
sit-stay-play In-home pet sitting & more. LLC offers a variety of classes that are beneficial to both dogs AND pet parents. 
Our private training is convenient, affordable and flexible.
In our first session, we'll meet you & your dog, talk about your goals
and set up a schedule to accomplish the training.
We work one-on-one with your dog for the training sessions.
Our training will sometimes take place outside and other sessions might include a visit or two to a 'pet-friendly' store to work on manners and reinforce behaviors learned.
We'll teach you techniques to use in between sessions and give you
tips to become better leaders.
The private sessions we offer include:
| Puppy Manners & Socialization |
Ages: puppies 8 weeks old to 5 months
Positive socialization is crucial for proper development of puppies.
We'll focus on positive reinforcement, good manners and basic behaviors such as:
look, sit, down, come, stay, leave it, wait, settle, loose leash walking
and how to greet properly.
We'll also share some tips on curbing common issues such as: mouthing, nipping, jumping up and potty training.
Ages: dogs 5 months and over
We'll focus on good manners and basic behaviors by using food rewards.
Dogs will learn socialization skills and pet parents will learn the benefit of using positive reinforcement.
Puppies who have successfully passed the beginner class can progress to this class for further work.
For proud pet parents of American Pit Bull Terriers, Bull Terriers,
Staffordshire Bull Terriers, American Staffordshire Bull Terriers,
pit bull mixes or other 'bully breed' dogs---your dogs are welcome here.
As a 'pit bull' owner myself, I understand the negative hype these wonderful dogs get
so this class is designed specifically for you.
We'll focus on proper socialization and rewards, basic behavior training, learn loose leash walking
and focus on breed-specific training.
Old dogs can learn new tricks and we encourage training for ALL dogs,
regardless of age or breed.
| Canine Good Citizenship (CGC) Preparation |
We'll teach you about the CGC test and help you and your dog prepare.
Testing arrangements can be made to take CGC test at another location.
Learn basic training techniques to help you have an enjoyable walk with your dog.
We'll focus on postive reinforcement and use clicker training techniques to help
your dog relax and walk nicely.
We'll use Clicker Training while working with your dog because it is effective
and we believe it produces results when used correctly.
Although not a requirement, we suggest you purchase a clicker in order for you to
work with your dog in between our training sessions.
Note: Once your dog has mastered a trick or behavior,
the clicker will be phased out and used for 'refreshing'.
Anytime a new trick or behavior is taught, we'll incorporate the clicker.
