Day Train Program

The Day Train Program is our solution to busy people who still want well-behaved dogs. We work with your pup all day to ensure that their obedience skills are well-instilled and long-lasting so that you notice an immediate difference at the end of the day train program. Our trainers walk you through the entire process so that you can communicate with your dog in their new “language” and maintain the training for life.

Benefits of Choosing Our Day Train Program:

  • The end-of-the-program training includes one-on-one private lessons. All your training is specifically tailored to the issues of your dog.
  • When ready, your dog is invited to our lifetime group classes for continual skills development and training maintenance.

The Sit Means Sit program enabled me to take my two dogs Gaea and Dayzee on mountain hikes without worrying about them chasing wildlife. It’s great to hike with my dogs and not worry about spooking the wildlife, thank you!
