DOG TRAINING - PUPPY CLASSES - BEHAVIOUR MODIFICATION
100% POSITIVE Group dog & Puppy training classes
with norma jeanne laurette & greg ceci
BRING YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY TO WORK AS A TEAM!
The days of regimented obedience trial dog training are long gone. Most people just want a well-behaved companion that responds reliably to cues and behaves appropriately in a variety of situations. And training should be fun for you and your dog.
Life Lessons Dog Training is a comprehensive dog training and dog guardian education program that will help you realize your goals utilizing both indoor and outdoor real-world dog training sessions. Not only will you train your dog, you'll also understand your dog and gain a thorough knowledge of canine communication and behaviour modification.
This program focuses on real world applications, teaching your dog superior self-control while teaching you how to be a benevolent leader. Every aspect of our program has been tailored to prevent and change unwanted dog behaviours such as; jumping up, over excitement, demanding behaviour, canine fear, dog/human or dog/dog aggression and many others.
Norma Jeanne Laurette and Greg Ceci teach these classes together. They bring over 30 years experience and over 7000 classes taught. All levels of the Life Lessons Classes include plenty of socialization and play time which is crucial to a dog's social skills development, temperament, confidence and emotional well-being.
Note: We're closed on all holiday weekends and run one week longer for each closure. We return all calls and emails during closures. See below for our list of closures.
