About dogz training and behavior

What they offer

Dogz Training runs small-group classes and private lessons, from Puppy Kinder for pups of 8 weeks to 5 months, Doggie Elementary and Surviving Adolescence to Canine High advanced obedience and a leash walking class. Private lessons can be held at the owner's home or one-on-one at the facility, and cover behavior modification, separation anxiety, aggression and fearful behavior, such as dogs that lunge on lead or fence fight. It also teaches rattlesnake avoidance and therapy dog training.
