Adult Dog Basics Training

Positive training methods from West Seattle’s best professional and loving dog trainers

We truly believe if you take the time to show a dog what you want, provide treats, praise, play, or affection when you see it, it will build a strong bond of trust that lasts a lifetime. Our training philosophy is built on using positive-reinforcement methods to help you see fewer unwanted behaviors and build a stronger, positive relationship with your dog.

Our adult dog classes are designed for dogs 5 months and older.

Reactivity Dog Blue

Proactive About Reactivity

Struggling to walk your dog or even leave your windows open without them barking and lunging at people, dogs, or even a bush in the wind? We are here to help you understand why your dog is behaving this way, how to read your dog’s body language, what tools you need to manage the behavior and how to use them to increase your dog’s confidence with the world outside their of home.

Our reactivity program starts with an orientation, which you will attend without your dog. In the orientation we will go over the basics and skills you will need for your first class. After orientation you will have the option of attending in person classes available weekly at our studio, virtual classes on a bi-weekly schedule, private sessions or a combination of the three. The instructor can help guide you to your best option.

Once your pup has some solid skills under their belt, we will have “meet ups” and “walk and play” to practice the skills learned in class, but in a real life setting! These will take place in parks or nearby neighborhoods.

Cost

Single class: $60

Four Session Package: $220 (expires after three months)
