Dog Training Personalized

Dog Training Personalized offers four main training programs. Private Lessons involve weekly meetings with a personal trainer focusing on obedience basics and behavior modification, followed by group classes for distraction desensitization. The Board and Train program is an accelerated, intensive program where dogs stay at the facility for 5 or 10 days, receiving multiple daily training sessions, including remote collar introduction, with follow-up private and group sessions for owners. The Drop-off/Pick-up program provides similar training to Board and Train but allows dogs to return home daily, with training scheduled by the day based on individual needs. In-Home Training offers a convenient option where trainers travel to the client’s home or other specified locations for private lessons and group classes. All programs aim to teach core commands like Heel, Come, Sit/Stay, Down/Stay, improve reaction to outside stimuli, and address unwanted behaviors such as jumping, counter surfing, leash pulling, and running out the door.
