Our trainers are knowledgeable in a wide range of methods. Rather than limiting ourselves to only one method, we employ an overall philosophy of how to care for and communicate to a dog. Our philosophy centers on incorporating positive reinforcement training, using attention and affection effectively, providing enrichment through exercise and socialization, and communicating clearly to the dog. We also use a wide range of training tools to aid the owner in effectively communicating with their dog.
Our lessons may be scheduled in your home, at a designated outdoor location, or at our facility in Arlington.
We offer lessons throughout the week including day and evening appointments.
The majority of our private lessons last one hour. The initial consultation may last an hour and a half.
For the majority of dogs, we will not start a boarding and training program before 5 months of age. On occassion, we will enroll a puppy in a boarding and training program earlier depending on the client's circumstances and reasons for needing a board and train at such a young age. Additional fees may be added to the program cost for puppies between the ages of 8-20 weeks.
