Fast Results for Busy Dog Owners

Perfect for busy owners who want to see results fast, the Quick Start Program is a 3-week, intensive boarding program. This program covers 5 key obedience behaviors:

1. Come When Called: A critical behavior for safety. We teach your dog to respond reliably, even in new or distracting environments.
2. Heel: Your dog will learn to walk calmly on a leash, ignoring distractions and following your lead.
3. Sit: Your dog will sit on command and stay seated until released.
4. Down: We teach your dog to lie down and stay in place until released.
5. Place: Your dog learns to go to a designated spot and remain there, perfect for managing excitement around guests or during downtime.

Additionally, we address common issues like jumping on guests, stealing food, and bolting out open doors. After your dog completes the program, we provide 3 individual lessons to teach you how to reinforce the training at home.

Program includes:

• 21 days of in-home boarding and training
• Basic obedience skills
• 3 individual lessons

Price: $1,999

"Alex did a great job teaching my bluetick hound obedience. He is a 6 year old dog so he had some pretty strong (bad) habits and he is much happier now that he knows what to do. Thanks!"

"Alex is incredibly professional. We saw improvement in our older, adopted, fearful dog in just 1 week with Alex's private lessons. I highly recommend The Prominent Dog."

— Alexandra L.

"We did private lessons with Alex. He really made it all easy to understand and even gave us new things to work on! My dog Sonja is doing great. She can now join us on family outings and not bark at people and can even have a seat in our dining room during meals without us worrying she is going to jump on the table!"
