Stay & Train Program
A Comprehensive Extended "Boot Camp" at Our Location, Covering All the Essentials
.
Our unique Hybrid training program starts with private lessons before staying with us at our 4 acre location in the Bamber Lake section of Lacey Twp. With this approach, we can build a stronger relationship with you and your pup before the start of in depth training. We've found this method helps pups feel more comfortable during their stay. It also gives us a chance to see and address what areas may need extra attention. We do all the initial hard work that training requires for you. With multiple lessons daily during their stay, we'll teach you what your dog has learned, and how to maintain it. We'll also follow up with private lessons after they return home to reinforce what they've learned and make sure everything is up to sniff..
.
Premium Obedience Camp:
Our all inclusive training package. Includes private lessons, a remote training collar, and a stay at our location. We teach your pet all the necessary verbal commands and proper behavior, and then layer in a remote collar to what they've learned. This approach gives your dog the best opportunity for safe and effective off-leash freedom when the situation is appropriate.
.
Essential Obedience Camp: Includes private lessons and a stay at our location. This is a great package for a family pet owner looking for basic obedience and manners. We teach your pet the essentials such as sit, down, stay, place, come, and loose leash walking.
.
Advanced Obedience Camp:
We teach your pet all the necessary verbal commands and proper behavior. With extra time spent on distractions, socialization, and practicing what they've learned in multiple environments, this package goes far above and beyond what can be learned in the Essential package.
