Owners pick by age: Puppy for 8 to 16 weeks (potty training, socialization, sit, down, come), Beginner for 16 weeks to 6 months (loose-leash walking, leave it, wait, tricks and games), Fundamentals for 6 months and up (core cues plus jumping and barking), and Advanced for 6 months and up (heel, recall with distractions, polite greetings).

One-on-one

Private sessions at the Port Charlotte store last 45 minutes with flexible scheduling. New customers can start with Private Lesson 101 to set goals with a trainer, and four- and six-session private packages follow a customized plan.
