REFRESHER OR ADVANCED OBEDIENCE TRAINING Keep your training alive $375
If you want to throw away your dog's leash and/or take their reliability to the next level this is the course for you.
This is a series of 5 private lessons over the course of 3 weeks. These lessons will be tailored to our graduates' needs. You might call this course a “tune-up” for YOU and your dog. A critical step to ensure your dog's obedience proficiency over time is to keep your training alive! Whether your dog could improve on walks, listen to you on a more consistent basis, do better at group class, or maybe it’s YOU that needs a tune-up, let’s get back to it with this 5 lesson course.
