How does it work?

Great question! The way that it works is that we meet up once a week, for one hour, for a total of eight weeks. During that hour, I go over and demonstrate how to conduct the commands for the week with your dog. After the demonstration, I then hand your dog back to you for you to emulate the motions and gestures performed in the demonstration. Once you and I agree that you feel comfortable with the commands, then I will demonstrate the homework for the week. This homework is designed to ensure progress with each command for each week. This way it gets you and your dog more and more proficient each day as well as working more for verbal and physical praise rather than treats.

Get my dog to work for praise and not treats? How do you do that?

Another great question! This is achieved by meeting certain goals each day. Once you meet or exceed the goal for the day, then you know you and your pet are ready to move on to the next day's training sessions and goals. By meeting or exceeding each day's goals, ensures progress for each command and gets your dog used to working more for verbal and physical praise rather than treats. By the end of the week, you and your pet will be proficient with the commands, working for verbal and physical praise, as well as being able to hold the command for a good amount of time and from a distance from you.

That sounds awesome! Where or how do I sign up?

These are some great questions! As you scroll down the page, you will see the different courses we offer. We look forward to hearing from you and welcoming you to the Inception K9 Academy family.
