The 2-week program includes daily training sessions, two 1-hour post-stay training sessions with the owner and dog, regular grade reports, and custom gear/tool recommendations. The 3-week program adds an extra 1-hour post-stay session and an option for Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Evaluation for Pre-Service dog and Therapy Dog Partnership.

Private 1-on-1 Lessons: Designed for ambitious pet parents who have time to train. This program consists of six 1-on-1 lessons scheduled once a week. Lessons can take place at Lynn’s home, the pet parent’s home, or an outdoor location like a coffee shop.
