Day Train Program
Day training is a drop-off training service that allows for immersive training with the benefit of your dog being home in the evenings and on the weekends with you. Drop-off and pick-up times are compatible with most work schedules, Wednesday through Friday. Owner coaching sessions are included with the program to ensure the best success at home.
Day training programs are a great way to fulfill the necessary social, physical, and mental enrichment that is required to have a happy, well-behaved dog. Your dog receives the most effective, fear-free training while in my care. From basics like the sit cue to handling techniques, your dog can learn it all with us.
Some benefits of day training: quick results, dog gets mental exercise to break up the day, and there are multiple sessions per day per week vs 1x per week with traditional private lessons at our facility.
Due to the intensity of the program, I only take a few Day Training clients at a time.

The day training program is customized to fit YOUR needs
In Day School, your dog will receive training for two to three behaviors that are agreed upon in advance, along with enrichment play, learning to interact with people or dogs*, self-control exercises, and thinking games. *Only dogs enrolled in the Day School Programs that are known to safely interact with other dogs will have the opportunity to socialize*
We even added a concierge service! Just text and let us know you need your dog brought to you… We can drop your dog off at home.

MINI DAY TRAIN PROGRAM
Hand over the leash!
Just think of the bonus this can be to you and your dog; drop-off training can supplement what your dog is already learning by providing additional training. With this program, you will drop off your dog with me while you run an errand or grab a quick coffee. Then you’ll return for a ½ hour private one-on-one lesson showing you how to work with your dog at home.
