Customized Dog Training Programs

Do you have a new dog or puppy that needs to learn basic obedience or manners? Maybe it's an older dog that's driving you crazy. Or perhaps, you just want a few tips. If you live in Connecticut or Westchester County, New York, we can come to your home. A few sessions, maybe a few weeks, sometimes just one visit is it all takes to get you back on track.

Some dogs need a few weeks away from home where they can receive extra attention in a controlled, yet loving environment.

We are not a kennel. Our overnight guests live with us as part of our extended family. Located in a beautiful rural area of Connecticut, we have ten park-like acres complete with walking trails, obstacle course, doggie pool, and more. Space for overnight camp is strictly limited to ensure each dog receives special care and attention in a family atmosphere.

By maintaining a limited, select client list, we are able to provide the services you need at the level of quality and attention you deserve--for the life of your dog.

Right from the start. Because we are not dog brokers, we can objectively guide you through the selection process to ensure you get the right dog at fair market value. Whether you are looking for a family companion or estate protection, competition dog or best friend, we offer the services you need to find, train, and care for your dog and to support your lifestyle.

Many of our VIP clients travel frequently or live only part-time on their estate. While away, they know their dog is happy and well cared for because he lives with us as part of our family. Located in a beautiful rural area of Connecticut, we have ten park-like acres with walking trails, an obstacle course, doggie pool, and more -- when you're not home, your dog can be.

We have been around long enough to have provided services for clients through an entire life's cycle. We were there to guide them through the selection process, we trained and titled the dog, provided a daily or weekly schedule of maintenance and play, offered their dog a home away from home when needed, and when the time came, we were there providing support and advice as their best friend passed away. Don't you deserve that kind of commitment and care?

Puppy Training. You may think you must wait until your puppy is a certain age before you can start training. The problem is you are "training" your puppy the minute he walks through your door. What he learns now will perhaps have the greatest impact on your budding relationship and his ability to cope in his new world. Bad habits created during this getting-to-know you period will only have to be dealt with later. Make sure you both set off in the right direction from the start. A little expert training now will go a long way, especially if you have never owned a dog before.

Training at a young age should consist of learning to understand and communicate with each other, house rules, social manners and constructive play. The foundation for formal commands are learned as part of every day living and set in motion a dialog with your dog that will vastly improve the speed and ability with which he can learn more difficult tasks and commands later on. We specialize in helping you make the most of this critical time in your dog's life. Give us a call to find out how.

Puppy Selection. When choosing a new puppy or adult dog, the first step is to take a hard look at yourself, your family and your lifestyle. Are you ready to make that decade long commitment? Is your family in agreement? Read our FREE brochure In Search of the Perfect Puppy. It will help you discover the answers to these questions.

Once you are ready to make the commitment, we can help you find that special dog or puppy and prepare you and your family for his arrival.

Do you train for Schutzhund or other working dog titles and need a trainer, coach, or decoy? Do you want your dog titled, but don't want to do the work yourself? We've been in dogsports a long time; let's talk.

Many dog-training professionals come to us for training when they are starting out, need extra help, or want to learn advanced techniques. We also provide support services for brokers who have sold dogs to people in our area and need a qualified trainer to transition the dog or to continue a training program.
