For owners who want to take it one step farther than Basic Obedience, this program takes your relationship with your dog to new heights. Off-leash sit, down, heel, and recall — at a distance, around distractions, in the real world.

Advanced Obedience adds to what Basic Obedience already offers, moving your training from the house and into the real world, off leash! Sit, down, heel, place, and recall — all done at a distance, under distractions, in new environments to expand the horizons of life with your dog.

We will work in your front yard, neighborhood sidewalks, and local parks. The key to reliable off leash obedience is practicing in a myriad of locations around multiple distractions, showing your dog the picture of engaging with and listening to you no matter what is going on around them.

About the Program


  • Off-leash heel — your dog walking alongside you, no leash required

  • Commands at a distance — Your dog will listen to you from down the sidewalk or across the park, no matter the distractions around them

  • Solid recall — your dog will come when called with enthusiasm

  • Sit and down in motion — without you stopping, your dog will change their position mid-walk

  • Change of position — your dog will seamlessly transition between sit and down, even at a distance

  • Real world proofing — this program takes you out the house and into the world. Sidewalks, trails, dog friendly stores, and outdoor patios. Let your dog come along and experience life with you

How Much Does Advanced Obedience Cost?

Pricing for Advanced Obedience is set after the in-home consultation, because no two dogs require the same approach. Instead of selling pre-determined packages, we factor in things like the number of dogs in the home, severity of current behaviors, owner time and schedule flexibility, and overall training goals to determine a custom program to ensure the best results.

That said, the price for Advanced Obedience typically ranges from $900 to $1500.

In this package you will get

  • One-hour sessions in your home, neighborhood, or local dog-friendly spaces

  • Any training tools we may use, including but not limited to slip leashes, place cots, long lines, and training collars

  • Lifelong phone and text support from your trainer

  • Client-exclusive boarding at your trainer’s home after program completion
