Dog Training News: What's New in our Training Department

Posted by Angelo Marinakis on Thu, Dec 11, 2014 @ 10:12 AM

Our trainers at DogBoy’s have been working incredibly hard over the last 6 months to revamp our programs. Since the end of June, we have developed a new focus on the importance of private training sessions. We believe that private dog training is one of the best ways that clients can receive individualized coaching to become better handlers for their dogs, whether working on basic training or on specific problem behaviors. Sessions can take place either at your home or at our training center. If you feel that private training is something you could benefit from please call or email the training department.

Both weekly classes and one day workshops are offered. Check out the group training page of our website for listings of all the classes scheduled for the 2015 winter quarter.
