Day Training enables us to come to your house three days a week to work with just your dog—think of dance lessons or learning a new sport. You can also opt for a modified schedule where you drop your dog off with us. We will teach the dog the new behaviors and cover the 'hard part,' then review the new cues we learned with you at the end of the week. Clients schedule coaching sessions, so don't forget to book them!
