3-SESSION TRAINING COURSES

In these courses you will learn how dogs naturally think and what scientifically has been proven to work with their psychology instead of against it. Once a week we will teach and coach you through different training techniques that you will be performing with your dog. Each session is about 50 minutes long with an additional 10 to go over any other training questions. After each of our training sessions you will receive a review sheet that has step by step instructions to the techniques you learned. It can be hard to memorize all of this information with such a busy life so, the review sheet is for you to reference while training at home. Once you learn these skills, you will have the tools to train and communicate with dogs for a lifetime!

CUSTOM WORKSHOPS

Maybe you've already taken a training class before, but just need a little refresher to fine-tune some behaviors. Or perhaps you could use some assistance with addressing jumping and potty training. Let's create a training plan tailored to your family's needs.


AMERICAN KENNEL CLUB TRAINING AND TESTING

There are many reasons to put in the time and resources necessary to earn recognition of your dog’s abilities: You might do it to show off their superior abilities; or you might do it for the personal satisfaction that comes from hard work. Or both. Regardless, achieving a goal you’ve set out to do is something to be very proud of, and why we offer many titling programs for dog owners to have their dog’s accomplishment recognized by the American Kennel Club.

As an official AKC Evaluator, DTWC may administer the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy program, CGC, AKC Community Canine (the advanced level of CGC), Urban CGC, Video Home Manners and Trick Dog tests.

PERSONAL TRAINING

Training is all about technique, repetition, and consistency. The more the dog practices the better they will perform.

If you are not very mobile and need assistance or, even if your schedule is tight and you need an extra hand. We are here to help.

We will condition old or teach new behaviors of your choice. Obedience, behavior modification, AKC test behaviors, and much more.

Choose from 40 or 60 minute sessions.
