YES! We help clients with potty training through private lessons or one of our camps.

Yes we can! We have trained lots of service dogs for a variety of tasks and have many therapy dogs actively working in our community. We have a blog post discussing the differences between services and therapy dogs on our website and an explanation of how we go about that training. We start with a consultation in our office to meet you and your dog and discuss the options. Feel free to reach out to schedule a free consultation. https://dogtrainingcamplouisville.com/2024/03/11/service-and-therapy-dogs-101/

The principles for human learning aren’t really all that different for animals. We have to meet all of the animal’s basic needs before they are able to flourish and successfully grasp new tasks. This includes proper nutrition and hydration, a clean environment, and stress mitigation. Because we prefer to remain totally transparent with our clientele, we published our Standards of Care Policy, which informs our staff and clients of how we will treat each animal in our care, regardless of their training status. You can see our "Standards Of Care Policy" on our website under "Blog." https://dogtrainingcamplouisville.com/2024/08/20/standards-of-care-in-the-kennel-environment/

YES! They will remember you AND the things they used to get away with when they come home. That’s why it’s imperative you keep up with the training we teach you, especially the 1st week they are home, so your dog learns the same rules they followed while with us also apply at home with you as well. We have never had one single dog forget their owner and we LOVE seeing the sweet reunions.

NO! We do not want to change the personality of your dog. He/she will still be the same goofy, shy, stubborn, or feisty dog when they return. It’s up to us to get to know your dog’s unique personality and enhance their good behavior, not take anything away. We just teach them that calmness and obedience work much better to get our attention and the things they want. They learn to look to us and YOU for direction/permission and follow our lead anywhere!

A structured, consistent routine allows us to establish habits that are easy for you to maintain with little effort. Habits are the foundation to help you reach your goals and build a solid foundation to lasting change.

Long Term Behavior Modification: We teach real life, practical manners and establish long-lasting habits. Most dogs can “sit” or “down” especially if you have a treat in your hand. It’s more useful to have them behave well in the house and in public places. Our training strengthens the relationship and communication between you and your dog for a lifetime of harmony. Individual Attention: We limit our training classes so that you & your dog get the attention you deserve. Team Effort: Our trainers work together to provide your dog the benefit of combined years of expertise. Public Manners: Once your dog masters the leash and basic obedience, we take their skills on the road. Field trips allow for practice in different settings and with a variety of distractions. Support: We provide hands-on training, written instructions and videos to transfer the basics of leadership your family and set everyone up for success. Campers are also encouraged to attend the group classes included

We allow a few days for your dog to settle in and develop trust before their true personality starts to emerge. It takes time to undo unwanted behaviors and replace them with better habits. Our programs are broken down on our website or you can call us for guidance on what program might be best for your family. If camp isn't for you, we also offer private lessons in your home and group classes.

When you send your dog to Training Camp, half of your dog’s training is with us, but the other half is reinforcement and practiced at home with you. We provide all the humans in the household with all of the the tools, techniques and opportunities they need to maintain everything their dog has learned and support them even after their dog goes home through optional in-home sessions, group classes, and more! If we work through lessons, the owners need to understand the training concepts and be able to implement and practice at home with their dog so that training progress can continue after our sessions.

We do train bite work, but are very selective due to the potential risks. We always start with a consultation and go from there. Feel free to reach out via phone at 502-356-3059.
