Group Classes are taught at The Stock Shop (6615 W. Thunderbird
Ave.) in Glendale, AZ.  Classes meet on Thursday evenings from
7:00 - 8:00 p.m.
We will begin group classes again in the
fall when it cools off a bit - please check back for
starting dates. Private lessons are available during
the summer.
 Classes are open to all breeds and all ages of
dogs and class size ranges from 5 dogs to 15 dogs.  The first
class is spent discussing behavior problem solving techniques (for
such problems as housebreaking, chewing, digging, jumping,
barking, etc.) as well as an overview of the course.  During the
following weeks, you will learn how to teach your dog basic
on-leash commands such as heel, sit, stay, down, and come.  All
ages are welcome, but puppies must have completed at least two
series of vaccinations and have veterinarian's approval if they are
not finished with their puppy series yet.  Any dog that has
aggression issues must be discussed with the trainer prior to the
first night of class.  Once you complete a group session with us,
you are welcome to repeat it at no charge with the same dog as
many times as you like.


Private Lessons are available in your home (or a location of your
choosing) for clients in the central, north, and west valley (please
call for availability).  Lessons last approximately one hour and can
be tailored to fit your needs.  Private lessons are what we generally
recommend for any aggression issues and for puppies too young
to attend group classes.  We strongly recommend following private
lessons up with a few group classes, and if you have completed
four private lessons with us, those group classes are provided at
no charge.


Board & Train is an option that is available in selected cases only.  
Please call to discuss your specific situation if you feel this is the
route you would like to take.  For this type of training, your dog
would come and live in my house during training -- once the
training is complete, you will be given a detailed diary of what your
dog has learned and be taught how to continue training him/her.  
This type of training will ONLY work if you continue the training on
your own exactly as you are instructed to do.  Dogs are intelligent
creatures that tend to learn very quickly what they can get away
with...if you send your dog away for training, but do not change what
you are doing at home, the dog will almost always fall back into bad
habits when it returns.
