More than a list of commands

Knowing “sit” is useful. Knowing how to help your dog listen when life gets distracting is what changes the day-to-day. This program gives you a structured opportunity to build foundational skills, practice together, and work toward better routines at home and on walks.

Everyday foundations

Potty routine, boundaries in the house, and structure that makes the day calmer. Example: a puppy who knows where to go, and when.

Communication and engagement

How your dog reads you, and how to ask clearly: sit, down, stay and play that builds attention. Example: your dog checks in with you instead of tuning you out.

Skills around real distractions

Walking, recall and place, practiced where they matter. Example: settling on a bed while visitors come in, or coming when called in the yard.

Your practice between sessions

Each session gives you what to practice next, so the skills hold up after the program ends.

Getting started

Start with a free phone consult. Ryan learns about your dog, answers your questions and helps you decide whether Six-Week Obedience is the right fit, before anything is booked.

Not the right fit?

If you have one specific problem and want a focused start, try 90-Minute In-Home Training. If your dog already has the basics but struggles in public, look at Custom Training.
