Basic Dog Obedience Training


Dogs are wonderful companions, but they can also be a handful if they aren't properly trained. That's why many dog owners choose to enroll their four-legged companions in a basic obedience training program. These programs typically cover the basics of obedience commands, such as sit, come, and down. In addition, they may also teach basic manners, such as not jumping on people or begging for food. By the end of the program, most dogs will understand how to act well-behaved. For owners, this can mean more peace of mind and a happier, more well-rounded dog.

  • Stop (when walking)
  • Down (lie down)
  • Return to sit (dog moves from down to sitting position)
  • Heel
  • Stay (short duration)
  • Recall (dog returns when called)
  • Auto-sit (dog automatically sits when owner stops walking)
  • Finish
  • Wait at door
  • Polite greeting (not jumping on guests)

Intermediate Dog Obedience Training


Intermediate dog obedience training programs are designed for dogs who have already completed basic obedience training and are now ready to move on to more advanced commands. These programs focus on teaching dogs how to respond to commands with hand signals instead of verbal commands. By enrolling your dog in an intermediate obedience training program, you can be sure that they'll be well-prepared to handle most situations that may come their way.

  • Commands from the basic training program
  • Hand signals (commands are delivered by hand instead of verbally)
  • Sit-in-motion (dog automatically sits when walking)
  • Down-in-motion (dog automatically lies down when walking)
  • Recall sit (dog returns when called and automatically sits)
  • Stand
  • Short down with handler absent


Advanced Dog Obedience Training


Advanced dog obedience training programs teach dogs how to perform commands without a leash and how to follow commands and keep their composure while dealing with distractions. This type of training is essential for owners that want their dogs to be well-behaved in public and don't want to worry if their dog ends up getting loose from their leash. While it takes time and patience to train a dog, the benefits of advanced obedience training are well worth the effort.

  • Commands from the basic and intermediate training programs
  • Commands are achieved without a leash
  • Commands are achieved in distraction-filled areas.
  • Long down with handler absent

  • What is taught in basic obedience dog training classes?

    Basic obedience dog training classes are designed to teach your dog basic commands such as sit, stay, come, and heel. The goal is that your dog will learn the commands and respond to them when they are given. In addition to teaching basic obedience commands, some classes may also cover topics such as proper leash walking, how to react around other dogs and people, and general house manners.

  • What is taught in advanced obedience dog training classes?

    Advanced dog obedience classes often focus on perfecting the skills learned in the basic obedience dog training classes. This can include teaching the dog to respond to more complex commands, such as off-leash training by using verbal cues or hand signals. These classes also focus on teaching the dog how to remain focused and attentive even when faced with distractions.
