We Train Your Dog for You!!!
Call (559) 817-9283 for more information

Many dog owners have seen how well trained our dogs are and have asked us about taking their dogs home for training. Due to the overwhelming interest shown in our hard work with our own dogs, we have decided to open our home for dogs to come to for a boot camp style training. We DO NOT use any harsh methods. Instead, we base our program in positive reinforcement techniques for all dogs. Our boot camp program requires dogs to work for every thing they want. They have to earn their food, their toys, and especially their play time. Even their walks are working activities that just happens to double as exercise. The goal is for humans to be in control of all resources so that the dog looks to us for guidance and direction as to what is expected of them. When humans control these items we are now able to motivate a dog to work for us instead of just doing what they please.

Dogs are worked in an array of situations including feeding times, going for walks, and door ways just to name a few. Dogs are socialized to people (including children), dogs, and small animals. Dogs are also introduced to some agility equipment during their stay with us to provide a job for them that is as much fun as it is work.
(Agility introduction does not apply to dogs who may have a health concern.)

Leaving home can be a stressful situation for any dog. To ease the transition from your home to ours, we require every dog that comes to us for a Board and Train program to bring their own crate, food bowls, bed/towel from home, toys, and a full (unopened) bag of food. Amount of food provided is to last them the amount of time they are expected to be with us. If we have to buy food for them you will be charged for the bag of food including sales tax plus a $10.00 travel surcharge.

Most cases are with us for 2 - 4 weeks. Dogs are worked 6 - 8 hours each day of their stay. The program package includes the time spent with us as well as an appointment to go over expectations and the individual training program to be sure we are all on the same page. It also includes a training appointment upon completion of the program to go over what your dog has learned, commands & hand signals taught, as well as exercises to practice to keep your dog at the top of his game. Owners and their trainer are in constant communication for updates on progress that is being made. Price is based on the amount of time spent with us as well as how difficult of a case we are working with.

Aggression, Dominance, and Separation Anxiety cases will be recommended for a 4 week stay to resolve the problems and will include an additional training appointment after the dog returns to their home. Prices will be charged accordingly.
