Aggression

Aggression in dogs can be a serious issue, especially when it’s directed towards other animals or people. Our obedience training classes can teach your dog better communication skills, so they know how to interact with others in a positive manner. This can help reduce aggressive behavior and make your pup more social and approachable.

Barking

Excessive barking can be annoying for both you and your neighbors. Typically, constant barking from your dog indicates that they are bored, anxious, overly excited, or even upset. To address these issues and help you form a better bond between you and your dog, we recommend scheduling a private evaluation in which we can analyze your dog’s behavior and give you customized training solutions.

Chewing

Destructive chewing is an extremely common problem, especially for puppies. Fortunately, obedience training can help your dog learn what they can and cannot chew on, keeping them — and your belongings — safe. We can also teach you which toys and treats can be used to support your dog’s training progress.

Pulling on the Leash

Taking your dog for a walk is supposed to be an enjoyable experience, but it can quickly turn sour if your dog is constantly tugging on the leash. Being unable to control your dog on walks can also prove to be dangerous, as they might lash out at wild animals or jump into the street. If your dog is difficult to walk, consider enrolling them in a boarding and training program at our amazing 10-acre training facility in Berthoud!
