Virginia's Best In-Home Dog Training Lessons

Our In-Home Training program is designed to meet the unique needs of you and your dog right where it matters most – in your own home. Whether you’re looking to master housebreaking, teach good manners and respect, or establish a solid foundation in basic obedience, we tailor each lesson to fit your lifestyle and goals. This program is an ideal starting point for puppies and dogs of all ages, setting the stage for a harmonious relationship built on trust and clear communication.

​

Housebreaking
Say goodbye to accidents and confusion. We’ll teach your puppy or dog to consistently eliminate outside, ensuring a stress-free and clean home environment. Our approach is rooted in routine and consistency, paving the way for long-lasting success.

​

Manners and Respect
A well-mannered dog is a joy to live with. We focus on teaching your dog clear boundaries and respectful behavior, eliminating common issues such as begging, chewing, jumping, play-biting, and other unwanted habits. Through our relationship-based training system, your dog learns to be polite and attentive, enhancing their role as a valued member of your family.

​

Obedience Training
True obedience isn’t just about following commands – it’s about a deeper level of communication and understanding. We go beyond the basics, ensuring your dog responds to essential commands reliably and confidently. By focusing on clear communication and relationship-building, we help you cultivate a well-behaved dog who listens out of respect and trust, not just because of a reward.

​​

The following commands and markers will be covered in our In-Home Lessons:

 

  • Watch me - your dog will give you eye contact.

  • Sit - your dog will sit.

  • Down - your dog will lay down.

  • Come - your dog will come to you and sit down in front of you.

  • Heel - your dog will walk next to you on leash without pulling.

  • Drop It - your dog will release and drop anything in his or her mouth.

  • Place - sends your dog to a desired location (usually their dog bed), where they will stay until you “release” them.

  • Free - your dog will be released from any command.

  • Good - your dog will continue to perform the desired behavior.

  • No - your dog will immediately stop doing an desired behavior.
