about Town & In-Home Day training

Looking for professional training results in DC without having to send your dog away to a Board & Train?

This intensive two week program (Tuesday - Friday) provides convenient, customized and structured obedience training in your home and in real world settings. Whether you are simply too busy, going out of town, having work done at your home or are overwhelmed by your dog’s behavior, this combination of day training and private lessons will lay the foundation which will allow you to address behaviors that are making life with your dog challenging.

The first week (About Town) - your dog’s training sessions will take place indoors and outdoors in DC’s varied neighborhoods, parks, dog-friendly establishments and the Diplomatic Dog training space. The second week (In-Home)- the skills learned will be put to practice in and around your home. I will come to your home twice daily to create the protocols specific to your home and train and work with your dog in your home and neighborhood. To ensure a smooth transition, there are, of course, lessons for you as well. At the end of each week you will learn how to maintain and reinforce your dog’s training and how to integrate what your dog has learned into your daily life.

Tucker

We are so thankful for Kathleen and her help with our English Lab Tucker. Although we owned dogs previously, we were totally unprepared for puppy behavior. Kathleen worked with Tucker, starting at 4 months, for puppy kindergarten and basic obedience lessons. What a world of difference it made.
