About Petco Dog Training

Petco store 470

Lake Jackson's Petco, store 470, trains dogs at 117 W Hwy 332. Its lineup splits into in-store group classes, six weeks of hour-long sessions, and in-store private sessions of 45 minutes with a certified trainer.

What each level teaches

Puppy (8 to 16 weeks) starts potty training, socialization and sit, down and come. Beginner (16 weeks to 6 months) adds loose-leash walking, leave it, wait and tricks. Fundamentals, for dogs over 6 months, also works on jumping and barking, and Advanced moves on to heel, recall with distractions and polite greetings. New customers can open with Private Lesson 101, and private packs of 4 or 6 sessions follow a customized plan.
