Queen City Canine #2

Queen City Canine offers several training programs:

Day Camp: This program is a board and train experience where dogs attend daycare 3-5 times a week for daily training sessions. After 12 sessions, an in-home session is conducted to demonstrate the learned skills. The program focuses on off-leash mastery, socialization, and commands such as heel, sit, stay, come, down, and place, along with general manners training. It includes access to group classes and unlimited in-home sessions.

In-Home Training: An interactive program with weekly meet-ups where trainers teach commands and troubleshoot issues, with owners practicing skills throughout the week. It offers flexible scheduling, covers commands like heel, sit, stay, come, down, and place, and includes unlimited in-home sessions and access to group classes.

Puppy Training (Puppy Basics): A three-session program designed to equip owners with techniques for young pups. It features flexible scheduling, a pay-per-session approach, and personalized sessions. Topics include crate and potty training, addressing nipping, biting, jumping, and introducing essential commands like sit, come, and down.

Boarding & Day Camp Trainings (On-site): This option combines dog boarding with a training program, providing convenience and immersion. Dogs are socialized and trained daily at the facility. Upon completion, trainers bring the dog home and guide owners through the training. Group classes are available as supplemental training.

Leash & Collar Training: This program focuses on teaching dogs to be obedient and walk nicely on a leash. It can be conducted either at the client’s home or on-site at the facility and includes a prong collar.

How to Get Started!

To begin services at Queen City Canine, dogs must pass an evaluation and have up-to-date vaccine records for Bordetella, Distemper, Rabies, and Influenza. Owners can upload vaccine records and request an evaluation by creating an online profile.

The evaluation involves handlers introducing the dog to a few other dogs in a play yard for 15-20 minutes to assess their interactions. If the dog performs well, they are encouraged to stay and play for a few hours free of charge. Owners are requested to remain for 15-20 minutes during the evaluation and are invited to tour the facility.
