Day training starts with a Day Training Assessment. In this session we talk about the program, make a personalized plan for your puppy that is specific to your goals, evaluate your puppy’s comfort level working with us without you present, and check to see if your puppy is comfortable with crating away from home.
Professional training for your dog, designed to fit your schedule.
Want help with your dog’s training but need a little extra support between classes—or don’t have time for daily practice? CleverDogs Day Training and Mini Day Training give your dog the opportunity to work one-on-one with a trainer on personalized training goals.
Anywhere from everyday manners and leash skills to focus, recall, and foundational behaviors, we’ll help your dog practice important skills using positive reinforcement. You’ll receive guidance on how to continue that learning at home, so you can build on your dog’s progress and put those skills to use in everyday life.
Whether Day Training or Mini Day Training is the right fit for you, our goal is to help you and your dog become a more confident, successful team.
