HUNTING DOG TRAINING CLINICS - 2 Part training class coming up in the beginning and the end of September to get your dog ready! Posting dates and details soon. This is NOT for pet dogs.

WE COME TO YOU!!
Private at your resident or property appointments for training is NOW AVAILABLE to book. Cost is $250.00 per dog, and $235 for a multi-dog household.

HOA Training Events - Do you live and an area of greater risk and exposure, and have neighbors interested in protecting their dog's as well? Reach out to me and I can help to organize a private event for this life saving training. We just need 15 people/dogs and we can hold an event.

Cost is $135/per dog and takes approximately 15 minutes per dog and the owner to go through this clinic. We use LIVE, Double Muzzled Rattlesnakes for this training. There are no cages with snakes in them, the location of the training is in a natural environment, so that the context is real life scenarios. You join the Trainer on the course, and are not just a spectator - this training is to not only save your dog, but also you and your family.

Something to begin to teach your dog on an overcast Sunday morning.

Then once the ☀️ comes out, hit downtown Vista, Carlsbad, or Encinitas and slowly begin introducing it into an outdoor, and real life setting.

Practice makes safe, Obedient and connected and confident dogs!

Most dogs are "Good Kitchen Dogs."

They'll Sit perfectly at home.

But ask for that same Sit when they're chasing a squirrel, greeting another dog, or exploring something interesting, and suddenly it's like they've never heard the cue before.

That's because dogs don't automatically generalize well. A dog that understands Sit in one situation doesn't necessarily understand that Sit means the same thing everywhere else.

The goal isn't to teach Sit once.

The goal is to teach Sit in lots of different situations until it becomes reliable anywhere.

That's what this progression is designed to do.

What level is your dog?

What's the funniest example of your dog "knowing" a cue at home but forgetting it completely somewhere else?
