Beginning
or
Basic
Obedience
Basic Obedience -4 months of age
and up
Here
at Sequoyah Shepherds we believe that the purchase of a dog is one of the
longest commitments that you will ever make. It is a decision that
will usually affect the next 10-12 years of your life. In our
opinion, it is a bigger commitment than the purchase of a house.
If you change jobs, people often have to change houses to be closer to
their job. If you have kids 4-5 years down the road, you often
changes houses. But, what about the dog? Now that you have
added a child to your household, has your dog been properly socialized
and trained to accept the newest family member? Now that you have
moved from the "country", into a subdivision, has the dog been taught
not to "nuisance bark"? These are all things that must
be considered when you add your new canine family member.

Beginning Obedience Group Classes:
For Dogs 4 months of age and older (and their
owners). This class helps pups/dogs master
their basic obedience commands such as sit,
down, stay, come and leash work (not to pull,
auto-sit when owner stops walking, etc.) It
teaches the basic commands that help ensure that
the dog is really "man's best friend".
When owners come in with their dogs, we
recommend that you have a list of things that
you would like to have your dog learn.
Each class is tailor made to fit each group of
owners. We will focus on your individual
dog and we can do this by making sure that our
classes are small and custom made. (6 week
course of 1 hour long classes each week.)

Beginning
Obedience One on One Classes:
These classes can start as soon as 8-10 weeks of
age. The big benefit of these classes over
the group classes is that we are ONLY focusing
on your dog/pup. The class will only go as
fast or as slow as you and your dog can handle.
Often times, though the classes are a little
more expensive than group classes, you end up
coming out ahead in the end. Plus, your
puppy can start these one on one classes sooner
than he/she can start group classes and this will get you and
your pup off to a "running" start.

Beginning
Obedience Daily/Weekly/Monthly Trainer Session:
These sessions are great for people who either
don't want to do their own training or simply
just don't have the time. You can bring your
puppy in for daily, weekly, or monthly sessions
with one of our trainers. This training
methods actually will give you the most gains in
the shortest amount of time without a doubt.
Instead of us training you to train your dog, we
simply train your dog. We will set up
multiple times throughout the day to work with
your dog one on one. This technique allows
us to help your dog excel faster in training
because of your dogs attention span. Just
as you yourself would get bored and lose focus in
a lecture that drones on and on, so would your
dog. Dogs learn quicker with multiple
small sessions rather than one great big LONG
one. After our training sessions then we
will show/demonstrate what your dog knows and
then work with you to make sure that the two of
you are "on the same page". Once your dog
knows his commands and you know his, he will be
more than willing to follow your lead.
After "BASIC OBEDIENCE"
there will be no more of this.......
