Our program is designed for dogs as young as 8 weeks old and up. Starting early helps build a strong foundation, but dogs of any age can benefit from learning life skills and improving manners. We adapt our training to suit the developmental stage of your dog, whether they're a young puppy, adolescent, or adult.

Yes! Adolescent dogs often struggle with over-arousal and impulse control, which is a natural part of their development. Our program helps teach calming techniques, self-control, and manners that make managing this stage easier for you and your dog.

While obedience training focuses on commands like sit, stay, and come, manners training encompasses appropriate behavior in real-world scenarios, like greeting guests calmly or settling during meals. It's about creating a well-rounded, polite companion rather than just following cues.

We offer exclusive private training sessions both in-person and online, as well as courses, masterclasses, and webinars through our Training Academy. This flexibility ensures you get the guidance you need in the format that works best for your lifestyle and your dog.

The difference lies in the emotional state of the dog. If a dog is excited and overstimulated but not fearful, it can lead to over-arousal responses like jumping, barking, and pulling on the leash. On the other hand, a fearful or anxious dog can also become over-aroused and exhibit similar "fooling around" behaviors, such as jumping, barking, and pulling on the leash, often accompanied by biting or mouthing the person or leash, growling, or snapping. To help determine which program is best for you and your dog, it's best to call for a free consultation or send us a video for assessment.
