3 Week Good Doggy Training Camp

Our popular 3 Week Board and Train Obedience Camp experience for dogs at least 5 months and older is for non-aggressive dogs without anxiety. It is effective by immersing your dog 24/7 in our home training environment, which includes a lifestyle of structure, rules, socialization, and supervised play. By living at our facility for 3 weeks and frequent field trips to local parks and attractions, your dog will develop a new foundation and state-of-mind that will make it easy for you to continue the training at your home. This will empower you to continue developing a new and incredible relationship with your dog!
During the 3 week program, we will address all your typical behavior needs including: Walking politely with you (with no pulling or barking) Sit, Down, Place Commands with Duration Recall/Come Distraction training with field trips Crate Training Waiting for Food Treadmill Training (if requested) Waiting at Thresholds (Doors, Car, Crate, etc.) Calm, Polite Interactions with other Dogs Exposure and Calm Socialization with Cats and Kids We will also focus on any minor behavior issues, such as: Jumping, Excited Nipping, Mouthing Counter-Surfing *Please see our FAQ page for answers to some frequently asked questions about our camp. **A recent negative fecal test is required for all dogs enrolling in our camps* |
Full All Inclusive Program - $2950 - includes any training collar we use depending on the dog (slip leash, martingale, or herm sprenger prong collar), a training food pouch, as well as a top-of-the-line E-Collar Technologies remote training collar. The owner must maintain the training at home by keeping a leash or remote collar on as well as wearing a treat pouch at all times while supervised during the initial transfer/transition period.
This program includes a 30-minute consultation at the start of camp to assess the dog's history and the owner's goals, 3 weeks of training, a 2-3 hour one-on-one private lesson with you at the end of the program where we will transfer all of the information, techniques, and strategies to insure continued success, and a final 1-hour follow-up private lesson 3-4 weeks later. Going away for more than three weeks? Additional days are available upon owner request at a rate of $75/day ($100 per day over holidays). The Good Doggy Training Camp is designed for total freedom and control, yet geared towards dogs without any resource guarding, human aggression, dog aggression, anxiety, or leash reactivity. If your dog has more challenging behavior problems, please see the Rehabilitation Training Camp below. If you have any questions about which program is right for you and your dog, please contact us and we will be happy to help sort it out! |
Private Lesson Package (4 Sessions)
4 Pack Private Lesson Package - Lessons located at our facility in Brandywine, MD - $800
Training supplies are not included in the cost of private lesson packages. You will have the option of purchasing them through us or through separate online retailers. |
In these 4 sessions, we will observe/evaluate your dog and situation and then develop a comprehensive training program to help in the journey to achieving your goals regarding obedience and behavior.
This program covers any issues during walks (lunging, barking, pulling, etc.) and basic obedience commands (sit/stay, down/stay, place, recall). We will also address behavior problems, such as jumping up, mouthing, nipping, counter surfing, or any other issues you might be experiencing. Our unique approach to dog training is geared more towards a fundamental state-of-mind change than it is strictly rehearsed behaviors. In other words, we are much more concerned with creating a happy, healthy, balanced dog than creating a dog that simply knows a few obedience commands. You will begin to see dramatic changes in your dog’s behavior within this first session. There will be homework! It is of utmost importance that the training be worked on diligently between sessions, by the whole family. We want you to be as excited about your dog’s transformation as we are, and we need everyone involved and on-board! The initial 2-hour session is comprised of a consultation, assessment, and hands-on training with you and your dog. The next three sessions are 1 hour each, where we will continue to work hands-on with you and your dog on all of the needed behaviors. |

Rehab Lessons (only open to clients who enrolled in online TBTE courses)
|
For dogs with reactivity and rehabilitation needs, our rehabilitation focus is based on “Training Between the Ears” (TBTE) principles and training developed by our colleague, Mark McCabe. TBTE techniques primarily use reward and relaxation strategies to change the emotional state of dogs and help them moderate their own emotions. The techniques aim to build better relationships with your dog by removing conflict, develop your dog’s self-motivation through success seeking behaviors, and changing your dog’s perception of the surrounding world so they are emotionally more relaxed and stable, and therefore resilient to external stressors.
These online courses and lessons are for dogs with severe behavior problems like:
This is the only program we offer for dogs that have attacked a person or other animal, bitten humans or other animals, has intense resource guarding, or intent to do harm (including fear-aggression). |
90 Minute Private Lesson at our facility in Brandywine, MD - $195 - This program is ideal for dogs that have a bite history, major anxiety, or aggression.
We also require all owners to enroll in the Training Between the Ears Online Level 1 Course here prior to lessons. All owners will see an immense amount of improvement with their dog by simply implementing the principles in the course into everyday life. |
