Dog Academy Of NC

In this unique two-week program, Michael works one-on-one with your dog daily to teach basic obedience (sit, down, stay, walking in heel position, recall on and off lead), and correct any problem behaviors (this can include anything from aggression in older dogs, to housebreaking puppies, mouthing, jumping, etc.) Along the way you and your family are invited to come out for training lessons so you can learn along the way and understand how to take over Michael's leadership position once your dog comes home.

I can not put into words the blessing Dog Academy of NC, has been to our family. Sandra Losa-Ward and Michael Ward run an outstanding dog training and boarding school. Clean Quite and Loving and room for them to run.it is a family run facility. Michael has worked hard to change my dogs bad attitude he is dog aggressive by nature of his breed.

After training dogs for the past 13 years, Michael decided to turn his passion into his profession. So he attended the Tom Rose School in High Ridge, MO and gained theoretical knowledge as well as additional hands-on training. He is now accredited as a Certified Professional Dog Trainer. Since graduation Michael has developed his own training approach, combining elements of both, the traditional and the motivational method, as well as the use of your energy.His training involves a balance of praise and correction, and he is more than happy to explain that in greater detail during the evaluation.
