Wish your dog had Manners, Obedience, and Came When Called? Want to go for walks with your dog walking nicely at your side? Cut him off leash in the yard, on hikes, walks on the beach or fetch at the park and know that he'll come when you call him even if...we'll let you fill in the blank. Stop the counter surfing, the you can't catch me games and that terrifying darting thru the door when there's a busy street out front. Our Freedom Program will not only transform your dog into his best self, but you will be educated and supported all along the way.
Here are some of the bullet points that the Freedom Program includes:
- Basic obedience on and off leash: heel, sit, down, bed stay, come, leave it.
- Off leash recall
- Crate Training
- Self containment. Being able to wait in a bed stay or a down stay with duration and distraction. This is one of our most valuable tools to be used in daily life in the home and out and about.
- How to sit when greeting people.
- Manners with food. How to not take food unless it is offered to them.
- Quietly waiting at doors, gates and crates for release.
- Social development with other dogs, adults, children and strangers.
- Developing good house manners.
- Manners in public at the places you want to go with your dog at your side.
- Preventing and redirecting bad behaviors such as biting, nuisance behavior, and destructive chewing.
