The Advance Obedience Package is designed for dogs of all ages and breeds, focusing on refining and enhancing abilities. It covers “The Essentials” plus advanced issues like leash reactivity, resource guarding, nervousness, confidence building, and dog reactivity. This package is available in 6, 8, or 10 sessions, with or without drop-off options. Commands include Come, Sit, Down, Off, Leave It, Break, Stay, and Heel.

Drop-off sessions are exclusive 2-hour sessions conducted at the trainer’s home. These sessions focus on public calmness, leash manners during park walks, and essential commands such as “place” and house manners. The program caters to both e-collar and non-e-collar dogs and includes one-on-one interaction with the resident dog, Skye. Proof of vaccinations is required.

The E-Collar Training Program, also known as “The Full Spectrum,” is a two-month program focused on building communication with an E-collar. All training occurs at the client’s house. The program begins with “The Essentials” and gradually introduces the E-collar at very low levels. It includes the E-Collar Technologies Mini Educator ET-300, a 15ft long line, and lifetime support. The approach is gentle and slow, using the e-collar only for commands the dog already knows. A screening process is in place to ensure suitability.

“The Essentials” is a comprehensive program for dog obedience at home, suitable for puppies as young as 16 weeks old to adult dogs. It consists of 4 structured training sessions (though one section mentions 6 sessions). The primary goal is to equip owners with clear communication skills, both verbal and through leash communication. This program covers essential commands such as Come, Sit, Stay, Down, and Off, and addresses issues like leash pulling.

Testimonials

“If you are looking for training, I highly recommend Full Spectrum. I can’t say enough good things about Jason and his training. He really cares and knows dogs well. We have a difficult breed to train. We tried other training programs and were starting to feel hopeless. Jason made a training program specifically for our dog’s personality and breed that finally helped to turn things around for us.”
– Afafia Curtis

“Jason has been working with my dogs for four months, and I’ve seen significant improvements in their behavior. They were adopted from a shelter, displaying anxiety, excessive barking, and aggression. Walking them was stressful, but Jason’s intuitive approach and positive reinforcement methods made a huge difference. He helped us establish boundaries, introduced pronged collars for control during walks, and provided effective training. Now, my dogs are happier, less anxious, and I confidently walk them without issues. I highly recommend Jason’s work and Full Spectrum Dog Training!”
– Laura Kozminski

“What a joy it is to have a well trained dog! Full Spectrum Dog Training with Jason Warnes has been a wise investment. The e-collar method used for my Labrador Retriever, Blackjack, isn’t a shock but a Pavlovian conditioning with low-level vibration. Jason taught basic commands and modified behavior effectively. Blackjack is now well-behaved and a pleasure to have around. If you are looking for an amazingly talented dog trainer, Jason is your go to guy!”
