Training
Report
At The Animals' House, we believe in making a difference- in your dogs' behavior, and in your life. We train by using operant conditioning, concentrating on positive reinforcement. We make it more rewarding for the dog to do the right thing than the wrong thing. This training is effective for dogs of all ages-puppies through adulthood. We concentrate on making our training fun for both you and your dog, and on improving your relationship with your canine companion.
Puppy Obedience
Report
The method of training we will be using is positive reinforcement. Socialization is also a big focus of this course. The puppies will have the opportunity to socialize with other puppies as well as other people. At the end of the puppy course, if the puppy and owner qualify, they will be given the S.T.A.R. Puppy test. Upon passing the test, the puppy will receive the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Medal.
Advanced Puppy Obedience
Report
This seven-week course is designed for owners and puppies between six months and a year old that have completed a puppy course or equivalent. This course will continue to refine your puppy's basic commands, teach your puppy to pay attention around distractions, and to respond when the reward is not visible. Common "Teenage Issues" are also discussed in class, i.e. general defiance, lack of attention, being easily distracted, poor leash manners, etc.
