Puppy & Behavior Board n Training
2-4 weeks | 119 Union St | $1225/wk
Puppy Training is a process-oriented art. It is repetitive and time consuming. To some people, this is music to their ears, but to others, between work, life and family obligations, it is simply not feasible.
In our 2 week puppy B n T program, we do the heavy lifting with your pup, while taking time to introduce you to dog psychology and training at a pace where you have ample time to practice and retain the information. Puppy B n T covers basic obedience & manners up to low level distractions.
**Includes 2 private training sessions
​
Adult/adolescent programs (3 week min) are available to reinforce fading skills, improve manners, or address behavior problems like reactivity, over excitability, anxiety.

Group Dog Training Classes
Saturdays 11:00am
75min | Varied Locations | $50 or 3 for $99
​
Our Outdoor Group Classes are our way to build community, educate, and practice communication and relationship.
Group classes are also a great way to practice with controlled distractions. Most owners do a great job teaching obedience in no or low level distraction areas, but drop the training at the most crucial phase—proofing obedience with distractions.
We are only as good at something as the amount of time and energy we put into it. Classes can give your training program the maintenance it needs to stay on point!

Puppy Socialization
Wed & Fri
1:00-2:30pm
90min | 147 Union St | $40
​
A well socialized pup has been taught how to behave in a way that is socially acceptable. Meaning, they have had positive exposure to a multitude of situations and environments where the pup has been taught, and practiced, how to channel a calm mindset to interact safely within his or her environment.
New dog owners often misinterpret socialization to mean playing with other dogs. That can be a part of the process, but it is so much more!
In our 90 min puppy DROP OFF socialization class, our trainers help pups:
-
Build confidence through agility
-
Manage excitement levels
-
Practice relaxation protocols
-
Read social cues from other pups
-
Experience novel sounds/objects
-
Learn basic leash skills
-
Problem solve
Walks
Walk appointments require a phone consultation followed by an in person assessment.
