Programs

 
Unlike group lessons, filled with distractions that keep your dog stressed and unable to focus, in-home lessons allow you to work in a calm, familiar environment for your dog.

Your dog can relax and learn, and you get one-on-one personalized attention to your needs instead of a cookie-cutter program. Your lessons are completely about you and your dog, so you can make the most of what is covered, get your own issues addressed, and ask as many questions as you like.

Here are some of the programs available at Pooches Dog Training (click on the program title link for more details):

Puppy Basics
Start your puppy out right with basic obedience training and behavior management. Puppies can learn quickly and easily, and you will pave the way to a lifetime of a well-mannered dog by starting early, before you have to undo any bad habits. Housebreaking, nipping, chewing, socialization, barking, out-of-control behavior and crate training are among the many important topics covered. In addition, basic commands such as sit, stay and come will be taught. This is a series of six hour-long sessions to get your puppy on his way to being a great dog! Click here for more information.

Foundations I

Included are a discussion of how dogs learn and how they perceive the world, the science of learning, pros and cons of various training styles, plus a long list of behaviors that will make your dog a happier and better behaved pet.
