FL Dogs

FL Dogs provides a variety of training programs designed for different dog ages and behavioral needs. The “Puppy Potty Help” is a private, one-hour in-home session that guides owners through puppyhood topics such as potty training, crating, initial commands, and correcting negative behaviors. The “Puppy STAR” class is a 4-session group program for puppies aged 8 weeks to 5 months, focusing on foundational puppy information, marking commands, “leave it,” and “off.”

For dogs 5 months and older, “Basic Training” is a 4-lesson private course, available either at their park location or in the client’s home. This program covers structured commands like full recall, sit, down, heel, and place, along with addressing unwanted behaviors. The “Basic+Advanced” package is an 8-lesson private course, also offered at the park or in-home, which builds upon basic commands to include socialization, distraction work, advanced commands like send away and off-leash commands, and tackles behavioral issues, with eligibility for Canine Good Citizen (CGC) certification.

The “Service Dog/Therapy Development Program” is a 10-lesson private package for dogs 5 months and older, designed for those seeking a personal service dog or a therapy dog. It covers basic and advanced commands, public access training, and specific tasks (excluding medical/alert training), culminating in CGC certification and eligibility to join the Therapy Pets Unlimited volunteer program. The “2 Week Board+Train” program offers an intensive living and learning experience at their personal ranch for dogs 5 months and older. This program focuses on basic and advanced commands, real-world distractions, and house, people, and animal manners, providing daily photo/video updates and free refreshers. Additionally, the “Dog Aggression/Behavior Modification” package is an 8-lesson private course, conducted at their park, for dogs 5 months and older exhibiting aggression towards people or dogs, bite attempts, or fearfulness. This program guides dogs through main issues and educates owners, potentially involving muzzle training.
