Basic
Obedience
Bring peace and
clarity to your home
When you begin your dog’s basic obedience training program, you’ll be asked to think in detail about what skills and behaviors are important for your dog to have to easily flow with your family. Instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach, we customize every program to your unique lifestyle and wishes. Along the way, your trainer will also recommend certain skills that would improve your relationship with your dog.
Some common basic obedience training goals include:
- Come when called
- Polite leash walking (heel)
- No (stop unwanted behaviors)
- Sit / Stay
- Down / Stay
- Polite eating, crate and car habits
- Climb (go to a dog bed and stay there)
- Greeting guests at the door
- Riding politely in the car and exiting safely
- Go public places like restaurant patios
- Respecting people and animals' personal space in the house
- Hiking, jogging, or biking with you
- Mild separation anxiety or potentially threatening behaviors
- Flying on a plane with you or traveling
- Leaving and staying out of the kitchen/nursery/etc. on command
- Running on a treadmill

In basic obedience training, select your preference of training program. Our dog training programs range from private lessons teaching you what to do, to intensive in home training programs and board and train programs.
Generally, the more intensive the program, the more basic obedience training your dog will receive directly from the trainer. This helps to build strong habits through perfect consistency and communication during the introduction of a new exercise. If you need to achieve your dog’s basic obedience training quickly, our shorter and more intensive programs (Homeschool or Study Abroad) may be most effective for you.
