BUILD

BUILD: Essential Foundations in a Fun, Group Setting​

Master Core Manners and Build Reliable Behavior

​

The BUILD program is designed for dogs and owners seeking to master essential obedience skills in a fun, safe, and controlled group environment. We focus on building a strong foundational skillset that translates to reliable behavior both at home and in public.

 

Essential Socialization: Your dog will practice focusing and listening with the distraction of other dogs and people, learning that your commands are more important than the environment.


Structured Environment: Classes are held in our dedicated Fernley facility, ensuring a secure and controlled setting free from unpredictable hazards.


Certified Instruction: Benefit from the hands-on guidance of a Certified Canine Training and Behavior Specialist.


Low Class Sizes: We keep our class sizes small to ensure personalized attention and feedback for every team.

​

The BUILD curriculum is focused on the core manners every dog needs to be a calm, integrated member of the family and community. You will walk away with a dog that understands:

​

  • Coming When Called: Reliable recall, even around mild distractions.

  • Loose-Leash Walking: Walking politely without pulling or lunging.

  • Core Commands: Mastering Sit, Down, Stay, and Place.

  • Self-Control: Learning to manage excitement (e.g., waiting at doors, sitting to greet people).

​

 

Who Is BUILD For?

 

This program is the perfect entry point for:

  • Puppies and Young Dogs: Establishing a strong foundation of good habits and appropriate socialization.

  • Adult Dogs: Needing to learn or refresh basic obedience skills in a distracting environment.

  • Socialization Seekers: Owners who want a structured way for their dog to practice focus around other dogs and people.

RESET: Behavior Modification

Target Complex Issues: Specializing in Reactivity, Anxiety, and Aggression

​

 

The RESET program is our specialized solution for dogs whose complex behaviors are disrupting their quality of life and yours. If you are struggling with issues like leash reactivity, separation anxiety, or fear-based aggression, this program is designed to provide structured relief and a path toward lasting change.

We focus on understanding why the behavior is happening, rather than just suppressing the symptoms.

​

 

Your First Step: The Detailed Assessment

 

All RESET journeys begin with a comprehensive, in-depth assessment. This is not a training session—it is a focused consultation where we observe, ask detailed questions, and gather necessary history to diagnose the root cause of the behavior.

  • Understanding the "Why": We identify the triggers, context, and motivation behind the behavior (fear, frustration, resource guarding, etc.).

  • Safety and Management: We immediately provide you with crucial management and safety protocols to implement at home.

  • The Plan: You leave the assessment with a clear, honest understanding of your dog's prognosis and a recommendation for the next steps, often our Intensive 3-Session Behavior Modification Plan.

​

 

The Behavior Modification Plan

 

Following the assessment, the recommended Intensive 3-Session plan is implemented to create fundamental changes in your dog's emotional state and response patterns.

  • Structured Relief: We use ethical, science-based methods (LIMA-certified) to change your dog's emotional response to triggers.

  • Focused Sessions: Training is highly customized and may take place at our dedicated facility or in a low-distraction public area, as determined by the assessment.

  • Building New Skills: We teach you how to effectively communicate with your dog and replace unwanted reactions with calm, controlled behaviors.

​​

Who Is RESET For?

 

This program is essential for dogs and owners facing serious challenges, including:

  • Leash Reactivity: Barking, lunging, or growling at people or other dogs while on walks.

  • Aggression: Fear or protective aggression directed at family members, visitors, or other animals.

  • Severe Anxiety: Destructive behaviors, excessive vocalizing, or fear in new environments.

​

Note: Pricing for this specialized service includes a surcharge to account for the additional risk, preparation, and expert knowledge required.

FINE TUNE

FINE TUNE: Targeted Refresher Sessions

Don't let one problem undo months of hard work. These sessions are perfect for addressing specific, localized issues without committing to a full multi-session program.

ADVANCE

ADVANCE: Advanced Skill Mastery

Achieve Off-Leash Reliability and Control in Any Environment

 

The ADVANCE program is designed for clients and dogs who have mastered foundational obedience and are ready to achieve the highest level of control and reliability. This program takes your dog's skills outside of the protected environment, "proofing" their obedience against intense, real-world distractions.

The ultimate goal is Off-Leash Reliability—the freedom of knowing your dog will listen, every time, regardless of what is happening around them.

 

What Makes This Program Advanced?

 

This is where true mastery happens. We focus on distance, duration, and distraction to forge a level of obedience that is practical for everyday life and prepared for adventure.

  • Proofing Skills: We actively introduce high-level distractions (other dogs, moving vehicles, food, people) to ensure your dog's obedience holds true under pressure.

  • Off-Leash Control: Achieve reliable, humane control at a distance. This involves mastering advanced commands and developing consistent communication without the use of a leash.

  • Specialized Tool Mastery: We provide in-depth instruction on the safe, precise, and humane use of advanced tools like the E-Collar (Remote Collar) or remote lines. Our LIMA-certified methods ensure these tools are used ethically as an extension of communication, not for punishment.

 

Key Skills You Will Master

 

The ADVANCE curriculum focuses on performance under complex conditions:

  • Advanced Recall: Your dog will come immediately when called, from any distance, and ignore distractions.

  • Reliable Stays: Extended sits and downs with distractions, even when you are out of sight.

  • Distance Work: Controlling your dog with hand signals or verbal cues from far away.

  • Off-Leash Manners: Maintaining polite heeling and impulse control in public settings.

 

Who Is ADVANCE For?

 

This program is perfect for:

  • Program Graduates: Clients who have successfully completed our TRANSFORM or BUILD programs and are ready to elevate their training.

  • Dedicated Owners: Those seeking the ultimate bond and maximum freedom with their dog in safe, outdoor environments.

  • Competitive Teams: Teams preparing for advanced obedience titles or performance sports requiring high-level off-leash work.
