Training

When your dog is as salty as we are, let us help!

Too many dogs are filling up the local kennels and pounds. We love our furry friends, but often don’t understand how they think and get keelhauled by an unruly or disobedient dog.

Let Salty Dogs trainers help you understand the mind of your pup and how to positively encourage them to want to follow you as the alfa in your own pack.

Our Dogs are Salty, yours don’t have to be!

Don’t Get Frustrated - Get Educated

We not only help train your dog, but also provide expert guidance to you through handler instruction. We will work to build your confidence in working with your dog(s) while educating you about dog behavior and behavior modification. Dogs are very much individuals and need to be trained in that respect. We develop training programs to suit each individual dog’s needs. Our basic goals are to build confidence in the dog, confidence in the handler, and to gain verbal control.

All of our obedience programs include:

  • Working on fourteen obedience commands
  • Specific problems our clients are experiencing
  • And obtaining our client's goals with their dog

Health Requirements

All puppies and dogs must show proof of vaccinations prior to participating in our training programs. We require current DHLPP, Bordetella and Rabies vaccinations for dogs over the age of 6 months.

We strongly suggest that your dog have a negative fecal test, a negative Heartworm test for dogs older than 6 months of age, and be free of external parasites.

Private Consultations

A consultation is arranged prior to attending a training program. While meeting with one of our skilled team members, the consultation gives us an opportunity to evaluate the dog and discuss the client’s goals. With this information we will recommend the appropriate tools, techniques, and a training program.
