We Train 4 You (yes, we train your dog!)
Training your dog can feel like a second job. Let us make it easy and stress free for you. We will train your dog for you at your home. This approach ensures training happens in real life settings and your dog isn’t going crazy being away from you. Best of all, you don’t have to be there so you can do what you want.
Each week, we train your dog 4 times a week at your home. At the last weekly session, you and Wags on Tails train together so we can ‘hand over’ the cues your dog has learned to maintain his progress. Here is where you get to watch your dog shine with his new manners such as sit, down, come, leash walking. During these sessions, we provide tips regarding housetraining, crate training or other dog topics as needed. We also include a follow up session to make sure the training sticks.
Benefits of a professional training your dog:
- More efficient training
- Easier on you & your dog
- More cost effective
- Includes professional handouts to go along with the weekly training
- Have more time & energy to do what you want
Private Coaching (we work together to train your dog)
Private coaching is for those dog lovers who have the time and energy to take on the training themselves. During coaching sessions you will learn how to teach a variety of behaviors, such as sit, down, come, leash walking, how to address housetraining, alone time, plus other dog related topics. This path also includes a mid-week 15 minute ‘Check in’ (phone or virtual) in case you have questions or need some help.
Benefits of Private coaching:
- You select the time and location
- You are unique and so is your dog. Why get generic training in a group class?
- Professional handouts to go along with the training so you can concentrate your dog instead of taking notes
- Our positive training approach strengthens the bond between you and your dog
Dynamic Duo (the best of both worlds hybrid program)
Do you want to train your dog eventually but want intensive help to get started? The 6-week hybrid package is perfect for those who want the best of both worlds! Your training package begins with 2 weeks of the Train 4 You path to get your puppy up to speed on a variety of skills. You’ll then switch to Private Coaching path for the remaining 4 weeks so you can continue to progress with ongoing support.
Benefits of both programs combined:
- Easy, efficient, effective start
- Scheduling that works for you
- Much easier for you to begin training after we get them started
- Includes professional handouts throughout the training plan

World Tour
To take a dog with you around town or elsewhere, your dog needs to learn manners outside the home. We can help train your dog in the real world setting so this becomes a reality. Depending upon your goals, we may train at outdoor cafés, sidewalks, parks, the Rail Trail but not the dog park, hardware stores or any place that allows dogs, with your approval of course.
