Some of the Behavioral Training we can help with

If your dog suffers from any of the following conditions, please contact us immediately. All of these conditions can be changed through training, and most owner's see results immediately.     

  • human aggression (lunging, biting, snarling, etc.)
  • dog aggression (on or off leash)
  • manners such as door bolting, jumping, nipping, play biting, or counter surfing of food items
  • uncontrolled walking habits, pulling and lunging
  • submissive urination
  • crate anxiety
  • separation anxiety
  • board n train for behavioral or obedience

In-home Training

Most of the items listed above require an in-home private lesson with one of our instructors.   In-home lessons range from 60 to 90 minutes, and the cost below is per visit for up to 90 minutes training time.    Typically one to two lessons are sufficient to set you on the path to changing the problem.    Lessons can be scheduled week day, week night and weekend hours.   Referrals are available upon request.   In-home lessons require Pre-payment via credit card.    Cancellations at least 2 hours prior to appt. time will receive a refund.    

Social Training for Aggressive Dogs (with Instructor-owned dogs)

For those dogs that need social interaction training, we offer a unique service that allows you to re-integrate your dog in with other dog packs!    We bring out instructor-owned dogs and help dogs with poor social skills start to mingle with good "pack" behaviors.   This service is available for boarding stays as well.   Most sessions last one hour, but customized programs are available as well.    

Board n Train

Sometimes it's hard to find the time to do all the training yourself - that's when you'll want to choose a Board n Train option.    After establishing your goals, we then incorporate these lessons into training sessions with your dog.   A video journal is uploaded to a private YouTube channel that is available to the customer for future reference.    The video provides future feedback that owners can reference as a reminder.    Each video shows examples of our trainers achieving your objectives, as well as a "sub-title" that points out tips to remember when working on your own.   The length of stay is determined by the objectives each owner has, but sometimes a minimum stay is required so that we may achieve desired results.

In addition - we also offer "refresher" board n train packages.    By continuing to work with professional trainers while you're on travel, your dog's skills will stay in tip-top shape.        

Please keep in mind that all services at the Ranch are by appointment only, so please call 678.493.8040 or email stay@thecanineranch.com to book your appointment.
