About Dandy Dog

Training

Dandy Dog offers behavioral training in one-on-one private sessions, with packs for adult dogs and a pack curated for new puppies. Sessions use a positive-first approach and focus on your communication and relationship with your dog, with a personalized follow-up by email. Training walks, paired with a private session pack, work on leash walking, recall, impulse control and socialization around your home and on field trips. Trick training and a home school training program are also offered.
