In-Home Basic & Advanced Obedience Training (8-Lesson Program)
The In-Home Basic & Advanced Obedience program is an option for Milwaukee dog owners who want to be hands-on in training. This private training package includes eight one-on-one lessons at your home and is structured in two phases.
The first four lessons build foundational basic obedience: come, sit, extended sit, down, extended down, place, extended place, out, loose leash walking, and off. The next four lessons focus on advanced skills including extended distance obedience, heel, watch, through, front, and stand.
The package includes an e-collar and training leash, with instruction on using the equipment during training.
This program is designed for Milwaukee dog owners who want to continue developing obedience skills and can practice between lessons. Consistent owner involvement is important for reinforcing the skills learned during training.
2-Week Board & Train Program for Practical Advanced Obedience
The 2-Week Board & Train is an immersive option for owners who want focused obedience training with a professional dog trainer. Your dog boards with a professional trainer for two weeks and works on obedience, manners, and distractions in multiple environments.
Core skills covered include sit and extended sit, down and extended down, heel, place and extended place, come on command, on- and off-leash walking, “off,” greeting manners, door manners, meal manners, and working around multiple distractions in multiple environments.
At the end of the two weeks, owners receive a 2-hour one-on-one handoff session where the trainer demonstrates the dog’s training and explains how to properly handle the dog.
The program includes an e-collar and lifetime refresher support.
Setting expectations honestly: Board & Train provides focused training, but owners must continue practicing at home to reinforce the skills learned during the program.
