Our dog trainers use a method we like to call “the Marker System.”  We introduce a series of “markers” or stimuli, to indicate an action.  Once the “marker” is understood, the learning phase can begin.  We teach our dogs through positive reinforcement in the form of, food, play, or something else that triggers a sense of excitement in your dog.  Once your dog understands behavioral cues we move into a more complex system of operant conditioning.  We put you and your dog through environmental and distraction exercises to ensure that your dog is fully listening to you and your commands.

 

We have multiple programs ranging from 10 days to 8 weeks.  Our dog trainers will work with you and your dog to produce the desired results.  Each dog, human, behavioral issue is different, and our dog trainers handle each scenario as such to ensure the best possible results.

Ari began training his award winning pooch, Zica, at 7 weeks, and is a big proponent of the idea that it is never too early to start building a solid foundation for you and your puppy.  Our group lessons are a great way to begin building that foundation.  However, our dog trainers recommend that Board and Train should begin around the 5-6 month period.

Our dog training packages range in price from $1200 for 6 private lessons and includes equipment($450 value) that focus on training you and your dog to work together to build up a solid foundation and on up.  Depending on your needs we can find a course of action that fits best into your schedule and budget.  For more information on pricing please contact us at info@dtowndogs.com
