Yes, Dog! Training Classes

Doggy FUNdamentals

Our foundation obedience class is open to dogs of all breeds aged 18 weeks and older, provided they have been fully vaccinated. Through the power of positive reinforcement and a healthy dose of fun, we’ll embark on a journey to teach your furry companion essential obedience skills.

At the heart of our curriculum is the triangle focus game, designed to build focus and engagement between you and your dog. Throughout the course, your dog will learn fundamental commands such as sit, down, drop, and touch. Additionally, we’ll work on essential skills like recall, loose leash walking, door manners, and much more.

Our goal is to cultivate a strong and lasting bond based on trust between you and your dog. Each weekly class lasts for 60 minutes and spans over 7 weeks, ensuring ample time for skill-building and reinforcement.

Upon graduation, you’ll receive a 10% discount on any private in-home sessions for the following 3 months, allowing for continued support and refinement of your dog’s training. To maintain an intimate learning environment, each class accommodates a maximum of 3 dogs.

Registering for the class is simple—just reach out to us via phone, email, or our online training form. Please note that full payment is required to confirm registration. While registration fees are fully refundable up to 14 days prior to the start of the class, they become nonrefundable thereafter.

Join us on this rewarding journey to unlock your dog’s full potential and strengthen your bond like never before.

Condensed Doggy FUNdamentals

Discover our intensive Doggie FUNdamentals Level 1 training program, now compressed into just 4 private sessions from the original 7-week format. Tailored for shift workers and those with unpredictable schedules, our condensed approach offers maximum flexibility without sacrificing the depth of learning. Take control of your learning journey and reach your goals faster with our efficient program.

Doggy FUNdamentals – Level 2

Doggy FUNdamentals Level 2 expands on the skills that you and your pup learned in FUNdamentals level 1. We focus on improving our loose leash walking, recall, and obedience cues around higher levels of distraction. You’ll also learn new skills to help make grooming and vet visits less stressful, keep your pup from counter surfing, and have them gladly give up that sock they stole from your hamper.

This class is for graduates of Doggy FUNdamentals level 1 who are also comfortable in a class with other dogs. This is not suited for dogs who are not able to focus when other dogs or people are in the room. Much of this class will be without the barriers used in level 1 so a strong focus on you, their pet parent, is a must.

Feisty Feido Reactive Training

Grrrrrrrrr…. Is a complete sentence!

Welcome to Feisty Fido Reactive Dog Training, where we empathize with the challenges of walking a dog who transforms from Dr. Jekyll to Mr. Hyde at the sight of another furry friend. If your dog, aged 6 months or older, struggles to pass other dogs without barking, growling, or lunging, rest assured, we can provide assistance!

Living with a reactive dog can be stressful, embarrassing, and at times, frightening. As devoted pet parents, feeling lost and overwhelmed is all too common. But fret not, we arm you with the confidence and tools needed to ensure the safety of your dog and others. Employing force-free training methods, our focus lies in desensitizing your dog, fostering positive associations with other dogs or people, and guiding them to redirect their focus on to you. Our objective is to empower your dog to make sound decisions, rather than reacting impulsively.

Though our main emphasis is on leash reactivity around other dogs, the skills you and your furry friend acquire can be applied to various situations, including encounters with people, places, and objects that evoke fear. The outcome? A more self-assured dog who trusts you to keep them secure, and who no longer feels compelled to erupt while on a leash.

Our initial session entails an in-depth consultation regarding your dog’s emotions and behaviors concerning their fears, alongside learning our focus game to promptly implement the foundations of our training. Subsequent sessions will we collaboratively address reactivity head-on. We strive towards seamlessly integrating your newfound skills into real-life scenarios. Additionally, for ongoing support, upon completing our 4-session package, any extra home visits pertaining to your dog’s reactivity will be discounted by 10% for a duration of 3 months.

Registering is hassle-free—simply reach out to us via phone, email, or our online training form. Please be advised that full payment is necessary to confirm private bookings. Fees are fully refundable up to 14 days prior to the commencement of the first session; thereafter, they become nonrefundable.
