Our dog obedience training program establishes proper obedience; teaching your dog how to walk on leash without pulling, to come when called, sit or down on command, to stop jumping on people, and respond to commands consistently. This program is in-board, also known as boarding training. Dogs enrolled for this program stay at the Academy until course completion ranging anywhere from 4 to 12 weeks. The dogs in our program have plenty of room to run and grow. We create an environment that values proper etiquette and reinforces inherent strengths.
