The Homeschool Program:
Our Most Popular In-Home Dog Training Solution
The Homeschool Program is the gold standard for in-home dog training, combining the consistency and accelerated results of a board and train with the comfort and familiarity of your own home. As our most popular and effective in-home training option, this program is designed to deliver rapid transformation while keeping your dog in their everyday environment, making it ideal for addressing entrenched habits and behaviors.
In this immersive program, your professional trainer works with your dog five days per week, Monday through Friday or Tuesday through Saturday. During the first four days, the trainer focuses exclusively on your dog, introducing new concepts and practicing them in progressively more challenging situations. This one-on-one attention ensures your dog receives consistent, expert guidance, allowing them to learn faster and with greater clarity. If you aren’t home for these sessions, you’ll receive a report card with a video from the training session.
The fifth day is all about you—the owners. On this day, all household members must be present as the trainer demonstrates your dog’s progress and teaches you how to effectively use the new skills. By actively involving you in the process, the Homeschool Program ensures that the training seamlessly integrates into your daily routine.
What makes this program truly unique is its in-home approach. By working with your dog in their own environment, we can directly address and overwrite previous habits where they occur. Additionally, we dedicate more time to teaching owners how to maintain and build on their dog’s progress, giving you the tools and confidence to succeed long-term.
If you’re looking for the perfect blend of professional expertise, fast results, and in-home convenience, the Homeschool Program is for you. Schedule a free phone consultation with our Head Trainer to see how this program can transform your dog’s behavior!
