Play Based Training
“Dogs are highly intelligent and emotional beings, and they all need a purpose.”
- Ivan Balabanov
The Process
Patience
Enjoy each other’s company. Spending quality time with your dog is often neglected. This is especially important for all activities outside of intentional training sessions.
Play
Gain skills, confidence, and so much more!
This is a vital step that cannot be omitted. Do you know what games you are playing? Do you know what objectives you are trying to achieve?

Training
You’re probably wondering, “where is the actual training portion?” Of course, you are right! It is of utmost importance that each dog and handler team are comfortable with the process. Rest assured you and your friend will be treated with respect and consideration for your unique goals. We care deeply how your dog feels about training and how they view the working sessions.
