About Complete Canine LLC

Services

The most detailed published menu of any trainer in this catchment. Private sessions are listed and priced individually – puppy classes, basic obedience, advanced obedience, e-collar, behavior modification and genetic enrichment – and the site notes that "All private sessions are up to one hour and they are held once a week for 5-18 weeks depending on class type." Above those sit two day programs. "Half Day Training" is described as "Your dog will get dog to dog socialization as well as learn all obedience such as sit, down, come, implied stay in all stationary positions, place, door manners and so much more", and adds that "Therapy dog certifications can be acquired through this program." "Day Training" is aimed elsewhere: "This course is most beneficial for extreme socialization needs (reactivity, fear, over excitement). Public outings, hikes, hours of structured play and work in controlled environments." Boarding is offered with a "Minimum of 2 nights", and three packages are published – a "Puppy package", "Hobby Hounds" ("Up to 15 sessions of nosework, SAR, or trick training") and "Perfect pup", the last described as "Extremely well rounded program for dogs over a year".

Where they work

The facility address is published in the site footer as "1467 Jefferson Hwy, Fishersville, VA 22939", and the services page names four working environments: "At facility", "In indoor public place", "Outdoor public place" and "Owners home or optional public place". That address sits in the middle of the Staunton-Waynesboro corridor.

Good to know

The business describes itself as "Christian-owned and operated business, built on a foundation of integrity, respect, and a genuine love for dogs and their people." The trainer is named as Lydia, also written Liddy, throughout the client testimonials the business publishes on its own home page. Day training ends with a handover rather than a simple pick-up: "Once dog has finished their course they will be sent home with a directional video. Owners will get discounted private sessions to learn what the pup learned over their stay." If your dog is reactive or fearful rather than simply untrained, the day program is the one the site points you at.
