Companion Dog
Open To All Dogs

Dogs are described as Mans Best Friend. Why is it then that they can end up being the worst friend imaginable? Some dogs don't come with manners, don't listen, and mess up the house with NO intention of cleaning it back up! If they were a person they would be the one that your mom warned you to stay away from!

​The Companion Dog Program gets your dog back on the right track. We work on manners, listening skills, household behavior, and other skills that help Mans Worst Friend become your canine companion!


​Do you want a Companion?

Companion Dog

The Companion Dog is our most popular program, and for good reason! The skills learned in this program are the cornerstone for almost all branches of training!

The Companion Dog is all about helping your dog start reaching their potential! This includes learning and responding to cues/commands, good household behavior, behaving on leash while outside, and reducing and eliminating inappropriate behaviors. We can also discuss small behavior issues like jumping or chewing and non-behavior items like nutrition, grooming, or exercise as needed.

By the end of this program, you will have a well behaved, well rounded dog who has the potential to be a great canine companion!

Work Through Play

What if I told you that games can completely change your life?

Dogs love to do what they love. And they love to play! (Who doesn't?). We capitalized on that desire to play and created games and activities that allow your dog to practice all of the new skills they learn while having fun with you!

The games we teach can stop problems like jumping, biting, and separation anxiety. They encourage good manners, positive interactions, and appropriate behavior. Most importantly, they help foster trust between you and your canine companion, building a stronger relationship and further reducing future behavioral issues.

Learning Between Lessons

Training doesn't stop when you leave the facility, and neither do we. Your Personal Instructor will discuss what continued support methods will work best for you and customize your experience to help you get the support you need without getting lost in "extras".

Companion Dog Program Options


Private Sessions - Working Together In Person To Get Lasting Results!​

Private Session Programs allow you to meet with your Instructor in person and receive hands on training! Your Personal Instructor will walk you both through games and training exercises that work through canine problems successfully, build your relationship with your companion, and build your dog's confidence in themselves and in you!
​

There is a reason that Private Session Programs are our most popular Programs! Hands-on training, continued support, and one-on-one instruction is a potent combination, but the most powerful ingredient is our client's motivation! We pride ourselves on our love of all things dog, and our clients continually show us that they do too!

Online Program - Using Technology To Grow Together

Online Programs allow you and your companion to work and grow together in your own home! Your Personal Instructor will meet with you virtually and walk you and your canine through games and training exercises that work through canine problems successfully, build your relationship with your companion, and build your dog's confidence in themselves and in you!

Virtual sessions are quickly gaining favor with our clients and it is not difficult to see why! Meeting virtually allows you to work with your canine in the comfort of your own home. This program effectively eliminates the problems that arise when working with a canine who is not fond of car rides or strangers. Not only that, but your Instructor can use their demo dog to show you how to start working on a skill AND give you an idea of what it will look like as your canine makes progress!
​
We pride ourselves on our love of all things dog, and we look forward to "meeting" you and your canine companion soon!
