Frequently Asked Questions

Every dog is different! We’ll start by learning about your dog’s behavior, goals, and needs. From there, a trainer will help you choose the best program and schedule your first lesson.

Puppy socialization is important, but not all classes are created equal. A great puppy class goes beyond playtime—it should include calm older dogs, new environments, training games, and exposure to different sights and sounds. Do your research! If you're unsure, start with a Puppy Consultation or Private Lessons to build solid foundations at home first.

Absolutely! Training works at any age. Puppies are blank slates, but older dogs can still learn new skills with the right approach. If you’ve adopted an adult dog, treat them like a puppy—start training the day they come home!

We use science-based, force-free training designed to teach dogs what you want them to do while building trust and confidence. No prong collars, choke chains, or shock collars—just effective, positive reinforcement methods that work.

Yes! Our Board & Train program gives your dog two weeks of hands-on training in our home, not a kennel. Afterward, we provide weekly private lessons to coach you on everything your dog has learned. Lifetime support is included!

There’s no magic number—it depends on the dog and your consistency! If you follow the training plan and stay committed, you’ll see progress right away. Training is a lifelong journey, but with the right methods, it feels like fun—not work!
