With more than 37 years of experience, our certified trainer understands that every dog learns differently.

DOG TRAINING
We offer three (3) types of dog training packages…


In-Board On Leash Training
Our 2- or 3-week in-board program starts at $975 per week (minimum of two weeks). This personalized course covers heel, stop, sit, stay, come, down, and waiting at the door. It’s ideal for families looking for structured dog training in Alpharetta that delivers consistent, lasting results.


In-Board Off Leash Training
For graduates of our on-leash course, this next-level option focuses on confidence, reliability, and freedom. Dogs learn to follow commands without a leash while maintaining calm and focus. Pricing starts at $995 per week, with a two-week minimum.
Private Training Class – One Hour On Site
Our certified trainer offers focused one-on-one sessions tailored to your dog’s unique needs. Whether you’re starting puppy training in Alpharetta or fine-tuning obedience for an older dog, each session provides personalized attention and real results. Classes are priced at $150 and designed to help both you and your dog gain confidence together.
Behavior Assessment / Evaluations
Before any program begins, every dog receives a detailed behavior evaluation to determine the best training approach. This step helps our trainer understand your pet’s temperament, strengths, and goals — whether it’s dog behavior training in Roswell or socialization support for young puppies. The $75 fee can be applied toward your chosen training program.
