Dogtown Pet Spa Sandy

Dogtown Pet Spa’s Premier Dog Training Program begins with a thorough behavioral assessment to create a targeted training plan. Their expert trainers use balanced training techniques and provide personalized attention due to a low trainer-to-dog ratio. Program options include Basic Obedience (covering sit, stay, come, and leash manners), Advanced Training (for off-leash reliability and specialized commands), and Behavior Adjustment (addressing issues like separation anxiety and excessive barking).

Specific programs offered are:
Day & Train: This program maximizes efficiency with 15 training sessions per day, incorporating breaks, new commands, and addressing concerns from the initial consultation. It includes video demonstrations, a report card, a 30-minute “go home” lesson, and homework assignments.
Private Lessons: Available at Dogtown or in your home, these sessions offer one-on-one attention, flexible scheduling, hands-on guidance, and immediate feedback to strengthen the bond and achieve faster results. In-home lessons incur an additional travel fee.
Pup + Parent Hybrid Workshop (6-Week Program): Priced at $799, this program combines three Day & Train sessions at Dogtown with three 60-minute Private In-Home Lessons. Certified Dog Trainers lay the foundation at the facility, and owners receive detailed report cards and homework for continued practice at home. Private and go-home lessons provide coaching for owners to learn alongside the trainer. The curriculum is customizable based on the pet’s specific training needs.
Bootcamp for Puppies: This $995 program includes two 3-night stays at Dogtown, separated by 2 nights at home. During facility stays, puppies learn command sequences, receive potty training, engage in 15 quality sessions daily, and build a relationship with their trainer. Owners receive daily report cards with videos and homework. Puppies learn at least two commands from a list including sit, down, heel, door manners, recall, kennel manners, walk nicely on a lead, touch, leave it, and drop it, focusing on Acquisition and Automatic stages of development. At-home periods include homework and 1-on-1 hour sessions with trainers to address in-home issues. Three daycare sessions are recommended for socialization.
Bootcamp for Adults: Priced at $1,995, this program involves two 4-night stays at Dogtown, each followed by 2 nights at home. It focuses on building a transferable routine, 15 quality sessions daily, and continued behavior modification. Daily report cards with videos and homework are provided. Dogs learn at least two commands from a list including sit, down, heel, door manners, recall, kennel manners, walk nicely on a lead, touch, leave it, drop it, and behavior modifications. The program emphasizes all four stages of development (Acquisition, Automatic, Generalization, Maintenance) to ensure obedience in various environments. At-home periods include homework and 1-on-1 hour sessions. 3-5 daycare sessions are recommended for socialization.
Bootcamp Recall: This $1,795 program includes a 5-night sleepover focusing on continual practice of known commands, long lead work for generalization, and e-collar conditioning (for emergencies only). Daily report card videos provide detailed updates. After the stay, two private lessons are customized to the owner’s lifestyle and dog’s personality, including sessions in high-traffic areas or creating an at-home plan. 3-5 daycare sessions are highly recommended for high-distraction testing.
