Training
Our professional staff follows an interactive, inclusive approach to obedience training with a focus on positive reinforcement and an individualized assessment of your dog's abilities. We don't just simply take your dogs in, train them, and send them home, but we believe pet parents should be involved in every step of the learning process as well. This helps to foster a consistent routine and strengthen the bond between you and your dog. Our trainers have completed extensive schooling, several hours of volunteer work, externships, and a final exam to become certified. Through group or one-on-one sessions, they can help you acquire the necessary skills to meet your dog's needs:
-
Puppy Class $100 for 4 Classes per Dog
-
Basic Obedience $170 for 7 Classes per Dog
-
Advanced Obedience $180 for 7 Classes per Dog
-
Trick Class $100 for 4 Classes per Dog
-
Private One-on-one Lesson $80 per Hour per Dog (At Resort)
-

Doggies of all experience levels are welcome to join our obedience classes! Before entering the actual training class, pet parents must first attend an orientation class in order to go over a list of things to bring for your dog, what to wear, safety rules, etc. We ask that all pet parents please bring a 4-6ft. lead (no retractable leashes) with either a flat collar or harness, and we recommend bringing at least 100 pea-sized treats to class. All dogs must be at least 4 months old (except for puppy class where they must be 10-16 weeks old), up to date on Rabies, Bordetella, and Parvo/Distemper vaccinations, and on a flea preventative. For more information about our classes, please contact us today.

"Our babies were loved, spoiled, and especially well cared for at Learn, Play, Stay Doggie Resort. Donna is the best and the staff are great as well. We will have them care for our six pups again whenever we go out of town. The facilities are excellent and we really loved that each of our six pups had their own room."
