All Breed Advanced Obedience

Our all breed obedience program is a six-week course offered for all breeds. This advanced program focuses on building reliable off-leash control and precision with core commands. Dogs in this program will learn and master: a reliable Here (Recall) even with distractions, a precise Heel both on and off leash, a solid Sit and Stay in various situations, and a dependable Kennel command. At the end of the program, your dog will be collar conditioned to ensure responsiveness and performing these commands confidently off lead in appropriate environments. This training enhances communication, provides greater freedom for your dog, and reinforces essential manners such as not jumping on people.

Basic Gun Dog

This is a 4-month program for dogs six months of age or older. Dogs in this program will go through basic obedience, collar conditioning, and force fetch. By the end of the program, they will be able to perform single marked retrieves, deliver to hand, and remain steady to shot. We also work on retrieving through decoys and off of a dog stand or dog hut.

*Monthly discounts available for specific pedigrees.

Advanced Gun Dog

This program is for dogs that have completed the Basic Gun Dog program and is an additional 4-6 months. Dogs in the advanced program will be continuing their education by learning how to run blind retrieves, which means the handler guides the dog to a bird they didn’t see fall with hand signals and a whistle. Genetics and pedigree play a strong role in how long it takes each dog to reach specific advancement goals. We highly suggest contacting us prior to selecting a puppy if you would like to take your dog past the basics program. Training discounts are available to dogs that are specifically bred for high trainability and desire levels.

Snake Avoidance Clinic

Please join us each August for our annual Snake Avoidance Clinic!

Wayne Lain, of snakebreaker.com, specializes in training pets and hunting dogs to avoid dangerous snakes. He uses live Rattlesnakes, Copperheads, and Water Moccasins (when available) that have been rendered harmless by removing the fangs and taping the mouth shut. He then introduces the dog to the sound, smell, and sight of the snakes. At a precise moment the dog alerts on these senses, he gives a brief stimulation with the E-collar. The dog associates the snake with delivering the stimulation. The training wears off over time. His best suggestion for keeping your animal safe is to vaccinate your animals with the Rattlesnake vaccine and get snake avoidance training every year.
