Training
Our Training Philosophy
At Dogtown, the positive methods we use foster companionship and healthy communication between dogs and their owners. Punishment methods come with the risk of inadvertently creating aggressive behaviors, and the long-term effects can be damaging and irreversible in dogs. Our goal is to help pet parents and dogs obtain life-long skills that will make their relationship the best it can be. We can work with pet parents to help address all kinds of everyday problems, from learning basic obedience, to controlling impulses, and to even solving more complex issues.
Our trainer conducts training evaluations with pets and owners to determine the training path that is best for the specific dog. The training evaluation includes a meet-and-greet with the trainer, a discussion about some of the problems the owner is having with their dogs, and the goals the parents have for their dogs. Once the trainer understands the wants and needs of the parents, together the trainer and parents will devise a plan of action for training.
All training sessions are scheduled with the trainer based on the pet parents’ needs, and the needs of the dog. However, the way we train is flexible, and the trainer will work with the parent’s busy schedule as much as possible.

These sessions are geared toward teaching parents how to handle their dog and address behavioral problems specific to the dog. These sessions normally take place here at Dogtown. We may also offer in-home training sessions for certain types of problems and certain kinds of dogs. In-home sessions, however, have an additional travel fee associated with them.

Small Group Enrichment and Behavior Modification Daycare
When dogs are not doing well in regular daycare, if eligible, we offer small group daycare. With this training-centric daycare, dogs get short daycare sessions with small groups of dogs. These sessions are supervised by an elite handler, and they are focused on socialization issues dogs have in daycare.
