Patricia Childs, a certified Obedience and Service Dog Trainer will come to your home or office three times a week to train you and your dog. She has over fifteen years experience with all breeds of dogs. The training is based on positive reinforcement with lots of praise and rewards. All the animals love going through boot camp where they receive the structure they are already looking for.

Obedience Training
 

Years ago, dogs were kept in back yards with no training expected. In recent years, dogs have become members of our families, being kept in the house for companionship and security. Now it has become more important for our dogs to learn to behave in a proper manner and to learn the rules of the family. This is why obedience training has become so important.

This basic obedience training course will teach your dog to walk (heel) at your left side on a loose leash, to "sit," "come" go into a "down" position and "stay" when commanded to do so. This means that he should behave properly, whether at home, around strangers in a public place, or with other dogs.

Service Dog Training
 

A Service Dog is not a pet or a companion; it is a working animal. A Service Dog can have various tasks and can come in various sizes. People think only large dogs can be service dogs, but this is not true.

Service dogs generally receive six months to a year of schooling for tasks, obedience and public access manners. A number of the traditional tasks are proving useful to individuals with hidden disabilities such as a seizure disorder, a psychiatric disorder, a potentially life threatening medical problem or condition which causes chronic pain.

A myth that ought to be challenged is the belief on the part of some that service dogs are only for the impaired like seeing eye dogs or dogs for the blind. Disabilities are not limited only to these conditions. You could have High Blood Pressure, panic attacks, heart trouble, etc. and benefit greatly from the use of a Service Dog.

A service dog can be used for a various range of disabilities. For more information please contact us at 561-339-7709
