Boarding Programs
Maggi offers a unique boarding camp option at her farm on Vashon Island. Dogs have come from all over Washington State to participate in her training programs. By offering a cozy and comfortable facility with limited attendance the dogs have a low-stress and powerful learning experience. Good social skills are learned through play with other well socialized dogs. We manage the play sessions so each dog is grouped with appropriate partners for a fun-filled learning experience. |
Puppy Jump Start Program
This is a 10-day program that introduces your pup to clicker training and we begin teaching a variety of tasks to help your pup be more manageable. Pups learn: Sit, Down, introduction to Stay, Wait at Doors, Loose Leash Walking. We also spend time addressing mouthing, housetraining, chewing, and general manners.
Month Long Intensive Program (For older pups and adult dogs)
The month long intensive allows us to spend more time getting tasks solid. Dogs learn: Sit, Down, Stay, Go to Your Bed, Wait at doors, Loose Leash Walking, Leave It, Get Back, as well as strengthening their attentiveness and response. More serious issues such as shyness or aggression would be addressed in this program.
***Owner training is an important aspect of this program! Meetings will need to be scheduled throughout the course of the month.
Sheep Camp/Stockdog Training (herding breeds only)
Your dog is worked with sheep to help them build confidence, expose them to something new, and/or hone their existing skills. The approach to stock work, like all other training here, is done in a positive manner to help the dog learn. While you are away—let your herding dog play!
Stockdog Intensive:
Do you need your dog to be more useful on your farm? To aid in flock mangement? Six week training programs are available for your working dog.
