BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION
(Private lessons only)
Behavior is often a symptom indicating that something may be amiss. It can be influenced by various factors such as pain, stress, temperament, lifestyle, family dynamics, socialization skills, genetics, and more.
Understanding the specific underlying cause of the behavior is crucial, as each underlying issue requires a tailored approach and training plan. It is common for a dog to be misunderstood, which can lead to ineffective training techniques or tools. Therefore, an initial evaluation is essential to determine the root cause, outline the necessary steps for improvement, estimate the timeline for progress, and provide a clear cost overview.

Board and train
Board and Train is an ideal option for those seeking effective and consistent training while enjoying a vacation or quality time with family. During your dog's stay, we provide comprehensive boarding, training, and socialization within our pack. Rather than being housed in a kennel, your dog will live in our home alongside our family, participating in daily activities and routines.
Your dog will learn obedience, appropriate behavior, socialization skills, and build self-confidence. We incorporate activities such as agility exercises, swimming, nature walks, pack walks, interaction with farm animals, and engaging games to create a positive, low-stress environment.
Upon completion of the program, our trainer will provide two private lessons—one on the day of pickup and another the following week—to ensure you have the knowledge and leadership skills necessary to maintain your dog’s progress.
The duration of stay and pricing are based on your dog's individual needs and training goals. Please contact us for a complimentary evaluation: https://beyondmyleash.as.me/appointmentType=58534199
GROOMING EDUCATION FOR PUPPIES AND ADULTS DOGS
Grooming is a vital aspect of your dog's overall health and well-being at any stage of life. It helps maintain healthy skin, coat, ears, and paws. Additionally, professional grooming can identify lumps, pests, and injuries early, preventing potential health issues in the future. For dogs that are uncomfortable or fearful of water, clippers, scissors, dryers, or unfamiliar persons, grooming can pose safety risks for both the dog and the groomer. Therefore, it is important to gradually acclimate dogs to these grooming tools through proper conditioning.
I have developed specialized programs tailored for puppies and adult dogs based on their individual needs. These sessions are conducted by an experienced dog trainer and certified groomer to ensure a positive, engaging experience filled with interaction and enjoyment.
