"Puppy Socialization and Beginner Obedience Classes Will Start Back Up in the Spring"

Puppy Class fees are $60 and all puppies are required to be in good health and current with vaccinations. It is the owners responsibility to provide current vaccination records from a licensed veterinarian. This is a class designed for puppies 7-16 weeks of age. This is an excellent class for first time puppy owners. Puppy Preschool consists of one private lesson followed by three group classes. Topics include Behavior Modification, Biting, Barking, Object Socialization, Handling Exercises, Grooming, House Training, Chewing and Digging.

Beginning Obedience Class (foundational class) is for dogs over 16 weeks of age. This On-Leash Class is designed to teach dogs and owners at various skill levels. In order for learning to be successful it is extremely important for owners/handlers to work at home as instructed. If you put the work in, this class will give you:

* Foundation skills necessary for clear communication between owner/handler and dog
* Clear training goals (together we will look at past and present behavior problems and determine what is needed
* Private evaulation/lesson (the first day), this one-on-one trainer time will help to determine:
* Your pet's learning style
* Proper equipment and fit
*Proper use of equipment to create a training program specific to your pet's needs

At the conclusion of this foundational class you will be able to determine if training with us suits you and your dog.

We hope to see you come back for more advanced training classes!

The latest in positive training methods are offered with our Obedience Program. Classes will focus on building a better bond with your dog through obedience. Class size is limited to 8 dogs.

- K9 Novice (Dogs 1 year and older that have passed CPT-Level 2 or K9 Beginner class)

- Beyond Basic Training (This class is for those who have successfully passed our K9 Novice Training Class who are looking for more complex training. We will work on retrieving, jumping, send out, etc.)

This class is for puppies that are 12 weeks to 6 months old. This is a family-oriented class. It is designed to give you the tools necessary to gain a good leadership role with your puppy.

This training provides a foundation from which your dog learns to relate to you in many ways. We will teach your dog to respond to all of your cues, including heel, sit, down, walking on leash, stay and come. Give your dog the leadership he/she craves!!

Having problems with your dog that requires further training? This type of training will help with problems such as aggression, anxiety, phobias, or just plain unruly behavior.

This training provides the most consistent and intensive training. As the dog is trained every day and the message is constant and correct, this training provides an excellent solid base on which to build all of your dog's future obedience. A professional can elicit the right response from your pet - then he will teach you. Typically a stay will last 10 to 14 days. At the end of this period, excellent results are obtained and the obedience can be in effect immediately upon the owner's return. Included are a series of follow-up sessions with owner and trainer.

This training is for owners who have already accomplished obedience training in the past with their dog and would just like a refresher for their dog while being boarded. Refreshers consisted of obedience training along with game playing for 30 minutes at at time.

We want your training to have continued success for the life of your dog. As you are now part of the Spring Green Pet Resort family - if your dog has ever received training at the resort - he/she will always be eligible (at the owner's request) for complimentary refresher training during every stay at the resort.
