Winston Salem Dog Training
Winston Salem Dog Training has been added as a new category for this site. I have had many clients and many potential clients suggest that I create something specifically for the Winston-Salem dog community.
The first thing I will address is the Winston-Salem dog training program for obedience. I conduct three different types of obedience programs:
1. Dog Training at your home in the Winston-Salem and Triad areas. This is usually the best type of training because we can train your dog on his home turf. Where he is more comfortable. Where he is most apt to misbehave.
The typical training program consists of 5 lessons usually spread out at weekly intervals. We do the basic obedience dog training with the following commands:
Let’s Go, Sit, Down, Sit-in-Motion, Down-in-Motion, Come, Place, Stay, Heel and Break. Occasionally we will add another command or two to this repertoire as needed for the family environment.
I show you how to train your dog and then you are expected to work with your dog on the specific commands until I return. We also address any dog behaviors that are needed.
As you are aware, you have to lead for positive change to take place. It is my job to show you how to lead and get results from your particular dog.
Remember, we are not here to intimidate, dominate, break your dog’s spirit or physically harm him in any way. We are here to make you the Leader of Your Pack and have your dog happily follow. This is not about Show Ring Obedience; it is about real life (although I can do that if you want it).
The cost of this 5 session Winston-Salem In-Home Dog Training Package is $525.00. This includes the dog training leash and most collars. I guarantee my results for the life of your dog as long as you do what I ask.
2. Dog training at my home in Winston-Salem. I own a farm off of Robinhood Road in Winston-Salem. We do have a multitude of distractions here … horses, dogs, peacocks, cats, etc. This program can be fine as long as your dog does not have any specific problems that need to be addressed in your home.
The cost of the 5 session Winston-Salem My Home Training Package is $399.00 Everything else is the same as above.
3. The 14-17 Day Residency Program is the most popular training program we offer. This program is designed for busy families who do not have the time to do everything with their dog or puppy to make them understand life is changing. Your dog will actually come live with me and my family in my home. He does not live in some outdoor kennel, but lives in my home. He becomes a member of my pack.
In this program we begin teaching him the obedience commands that are necessary for him to learn to adapt to pack structure. You come to visit and learn how to become the leader of your pack 2-3 times before he goes home. Usually there is 2-3 more lessons afterwards.
Many, many families/dog owners love this program as it still gives them hands-on in the training of their dog. The cost of this program is $ 990.00.
4. The 30 Day Residency Program is also where your dog will actually come live with me and my family in my home. Again, he actually lives in our home with my family and my dogs. We do all of the obedience, behavior modification, etc. He/she actually becomes a member of my pack for a few weeks.
I want you to come visit your dog at least 3-4 times during the stay. During your visit I will begin teaching you how to take control and become your dog’s leader. We chronicle how to follow-up on his training on HD DVD so that you can always review the proper training for a refresher.
At the end of his stay, I return your dog to your home and have at least 1-2 more training sessions at my farm. Of course, we can have many more training sessions if needed at no extra cost to you..
The cost of the Winston-Salem Residency Dog Training Package is $1595.00. This program is great for someone that is going on vacation or is planning a trip. I will only bring in 2-3 dogs at any given time in this program.
I am not doing classes at this time. I was involved with the initial dog training classes at Tanglewood Park in Clemmons a number of years ago. While I enjoyed the social aspects, I just had too many clients not willing to put in the work that they needed with their dog.
