Each training program is customized based on your dog's personality, breed, and age.
2. How long does it take to train my dog?

After the 5 week program, you can discuss next steps with your trainer how to maintain and grow in your new skills with your dog.

This balanced approach is proven to be highly effective for achieving lasting behavioral changes without causing fear or confusion.
