What's Included:
All lessons will be tailored to individual needs. Topics include, but are not limited to: Heeling at your side, let's go-move forward with you, learning to stop and wait for us, turns, distractions, and much more. In training new skills we then help change old behaviors into new behaviors that you like and what to see more of. While you’re at work or school we will do the first 3 sessions with just your dog. Then at the end of the 3rd session, we will schedule your 2 transfer sessions with you. During sessions 4 and 5 we give you the leash and begin to teach you the skills your dog has been learning so you can take over the training from there.

Day Training
What Is Day Training?
The Wags n Wisdom Dog Training Program is a convenient way to give dogs the training they need as well as an outlet for their energy and mental stimulation needs during the day while you’re out of the house or at work. One of the benefits of this program is that the trainer comes to your home 2 or 3 times a week and works with your dog one on one, leaving little to do on your part for those who have a busy schedule, and you can come home to a better behaved, happy dog!
We offer science-based, positive reinforcement, force-free, and fear-free training techniques, which is a guarantee. While you’re away at work, the trainer will teach your dog new skills and behavior. At the consultation, we will discuss your training goals for your dog as well as schedule the days and times for the training to take place.
Another benefit of the Wags n Wisdom Dog Training program is that we will do all the consistent and repetitive training work and practice with your dog. This is often the most common area in which the training breaks down with owners and their dogs and it generally stems from a lack of available time to work with the dog or keep up the consistency.
How does Day Training work?
After the initial consultation appointment, we come to your home during the day at the scheduled time for one hour to work on the behaviors that we discussed along with allowing the dog some mental and physical stimulation as well as a bathroom break. Each training session we will email you a summary of the behaviors and or activities that we did and simple instructions on how you can practice them.
There is one transfer session, this session is also an hour long. The transfer session will be with you and your family to see final results as well as information on how to maintain these behaviors and continue your dog’s training progress.
What’s Included in Your Package

- 1-hour training sessions with a certified professional dog trainer
- Training Plan tailored to your dog’s needs
