WE ARE IN DOWNTOWN PLYMOUTH!

Basic Obedience Observation Program (BOOP)

Want to teach your dog the basics but the dog is:
Reactive - Overwhelmed - Overstimulated - Fearful or Grouchy around other dogs?
We have a great solution!
 Attend classes without your dog!
Sounds crazy doesn't it? Actually, being in the room, and able to observe the other dogs in class, you can see how things are done, ask questions and also be able to see some troubleshooting when things don't go perfectly. You get more out of it than in a zoom class. We cover more than basic obedience exercises, the class will also learn a lot about dog behavior and you will get a homework sheet at the beginning of class so you can follow along and take notes. We will send you a video of each week. For each student in this program, the trainer will spend a little time before or after each class, making sure things are going well at home.
 
Let us know what class in the schedule below you would like to attend weekly.
Price for this program is discounted at $180 for the 5 weeks of training.
 
PLEASE GIVE US 48 HOURS
IF YOU ARE GOING TO DROP
THE CLASS BEFORE IT STARTS
WE WILL GIVE A FULL REFUND
Due to the high demand for classes.
We will consider 50% refunds if cancels
less that 48 hours or if it is decided
between the dog owner and trainer
that the class isn't a good fit for the dog.
This will be decided on a case to case basis.
We are unable to give refunds
 after the first class.
