After the evaluation, we can proceed two different ways: you and your pet can train in private lessons or you can enroll your pet for our board and train program.

About our training program
Second Hand Dogs
We can erase the mistakes of the previous home with proper care and the correct balance between love and respect. The transition from the shelter to the new family can be eased through awareness of the dog’s individual needs. Learning techniques designed to assert control over your dog without intimidation is very important to establishing a lasting bond.
About our training program
Obedience and Manners Training
Maximize the time you spend loving your dog by teaching it how to avoid the things that make you angry. Teaching your dog the rules of the house and the rules of society should be a top priority along with proper health care. The safety of your dog, and the sanity of your household depends on training. A dog’s personality does not fully develop without training. It needs to be challenged mentally and to feel emotionally secure. Proper training fills both needs by giving the dog a purpose and a secure place within the family.
About our training program
Rehabilitation of Abused Animals
An animal that has been rescued from an abusive or traumatic situation needs to be taught the confidence that it has been robbed of and it’s sense of safety restored. Otherwise, it will not develop into a healthy, mentally stable pet. Sympathy is not enough, understanding and action are the key.
Phobias can be overcome in an abused animal. This greatly increases the confidence of the dog and it’s quality of life. The dog can only regain confidence through the trust it has for it’s owner. Ease the unnatural tension in the abused or phobic dog’s life through skilled handling.
