Obedience Training

Correct Unwanted Behavior and Develop Your Relationship With Quality Obedience Training

Each dog has their own personality, whether it’s a mixed-breed or a purebred. They all have traits unique to their breed. For example, living with a Rottweiler is different from living with a Beagle.

  • Do you feel like you’re in over your head with your dog breed?
  • Do you feel like you have lost control since your puppy has gotten larger?
  • Does it feel like your dog is trying to control your household?

The secret is working together with the right trainer, and Lars’s Canine Excellence is here to help you improve your relationship with your canine companion. Owners seek us out after they have tried trainers using unrealistic “purely positive, correction-free” ideas, particularly with intense, strong-willed dogs. We take a common-sense approach based on real-world experience–not unproductive theories.

How Our Training Process Works

Dogs need to be trained to know how to act in certain situations. Some common issues include:

  • Dog-to-dog aggression
  • People aggression
  • Jumping on owner/guests
  • Puppy nipping
  • Pulling on leash

These are all correctable behaviors that often require professional dog training. Our philosophy is to use a balanced approach. We also help pet owners have the right mindset when it comes to training their dogs. It’s not a simple or quick fix to have an obedient dog, we will help you be a calm and confident leader your dog will respond well to.

All of our services are handled during house calls. The value of working with in-home dog trainers is your dog will learn acceptable behaviors in the comfort of their home. In addition, we often bring one of our demo dogs to appointments to illustrate certain training ideas.
