Dog Obedience Training — On-Leash to Off-Leash

Clear, kind communication from first cues to a dog who happily listens off-leash — even at the park, even around squirrels — through focused one-on-one lessons.

Two paths, one standard

Our Intro & Basic Foundation package ($350, three one-on-one lessons) is where most dogs start — imprinting and shaping, engagement and drive building, and an introduction to recall, sit, down, place and heeling. Pups can begin once initial puppy shots are complete.

Ready for more? Intermediate to Advanced Obedience ($600, six one-on-one lessons) takes your dog from loose-leash to off-leash heeling and reliable recalls under moderate to heavy distraction. We meet once or twice a week depending on your dog's needs.

Why one-on-one

Group classes teach to the middle. Private lessons meet the dog in front of us — faster progress, cleaner communication, and a plan built for your dog and your goals.

Common Questions

Answers before you call.

When can my puppy start obedience lessons?
Puppies can begin the Intro & Basic Foundation package once all initial puppy vaccinations are complete.
How often will we meet?
Typically once or twice a week, depending on your dog's needs and how quickly you're progressing.
Will my dog really be off-leash reliable?
The Intermediate to Advanced package is built around off-leash heeling and recall under distraction. Reliability depends on the dog and your follow-through — which is exactly why we train you too.
How much does obedience training cost?
The 3-lesson Intro & Basic Foundation package is $350; the 6-lesson package is $600. We'll recommend the right starting point for your dog when you call.
What if my dog already knows the basics?
Then you're ready for the Intermediate to Advanced work — off-leash heeling and recall under real distraction. We meet the dog where it is.
