Pence K9 offers immersive dog training retreats, where dogs stay at the trainer’s home for 2-3 weeks, receiving daily training sessions, socialization, and relaxation. There are two main retreat programs: On-Leash and Off-Leash.
The On-Leash Retreat focuses on mastering six commands: Sit, Down, Heel, Stay, On Your Bed, and Leave It. This program includes a custom leash, training collar, dog bed, one go-home lesson, and two follow-up lessons.
The Off-Leash Retreat includes all commands from the on-leash training plus the ‘Come’ command for off-leash freedom. It includes the same items as the on-leash training, plus an E-Collar from E-Collar Technologies, one go-home lesson, and three follow-up lessons.
Additionally, Pence K9 provides one-on-one puppy training sessions in the client’s home. These personalized sessions address common puppy challenges such as crate-training, potty training, socialization, and biting.
