Started Dog Programs
Started Family Companion: $3,500
(Typically around 6-8 Months of age)
Skip the puppy stage! A started family companion dog is raised in our superior Puppy Jump Start Program, meaning that your puppy underwent the same level of advanced socialization as a therapy dog in training. Dogs coming out of this program are potty trained, crate trained, and obedience trained. These dogs are ready to come into your home right away and to be trusted and beloved members of your family!
Some of these dogs could even be started candidates for Therapy or Service Dogs.
Mason at the park during the snow storm of 2021. He was able to take both of our dogs, Ginger and Ruby to the neighborhood park, off lead. Because they listen to him just as well as they listen to me. Great work killing zombies in the apocalypse girls! ;)
This program includes:
-
Here- your recall command.
-
Heel- this tells your dog to walk at your left or right side on or off lead without pulling the leash or getting ahead.
-
Sit- sit means sit, there is no stay command. This includes a remote sit, where you can walk away from your dog, even out of his view and expect him to maintain his sit.
-
Down- Down is useful when intoruducing your dog to new people, particularly kids or people who might be unsure of dogs.
-
Place- I teach your dog to place wherever you tell him, a dog bed, a stump at the park, the seat of your polaris, and he should stay there. He can stand up, lay down, play with toys, but he is not allowed to leave that place until you tell him he can get off, even if that means 2 hours.
-
Waiting at doors, to get out of the car, the crate until you release the dog to come through. No more busting through the front door.
-
Leave it- Thats not your toy! Leave it alone.
