Pri­vate Lessons

What it is:  Dog train­ing lessons work­ing one-on-one with a trainer. We coach you through the steps and you prac­tice with your dog in-between lessons.

How it works:  We work with you at your home with the fewest number of session to quickly meet your  train­ing goals.

Day Train­ing

What it is:  A fast, effec­tive way to get a well-behaved dog. We do the train­ing for you, then show you how to keep your dog’s improved man­ners from slipping back with a trans­fer ses­sion to show you how to main­tain and continue improving on the behav­iors learned.

Behavior Modification

If you come to BNA and your dog is assessed to have extraneous levels of aggression, resource guarding, anxiety, fear or neurotic tendencies the above plans are created while working with your veterinarian to create a treatment plan.
