A dog’s home and neighborhood is the most natural setting for training to occur. Our trainers teach your dog the new improved behavior, while teaching you the skills needed to maintain your dog's new good canine etiquette. Ask About our Rapid Start Program (hybrid Board and Train followed by In Home follow up)
The program involves a two-week intensive training period where your dog lives with the trainer in their home. The training is then continued with you, in your home, with weekly training sessions. This method fosters a more complete understanding of the training by both you and your dog and assures your family’s ability to maintain their BetterDog’s new and improved behavior.
Dogs are aggressive for many different reasons, and therefore training needs to be properly customized for their needs to resolve the behavior. From BetterDog Training your dog will first learn that aggressive behavior is not allowed. We replace your dog's anxiety with a positive association.
