Intermediate Obedience Training

Taking Dog Training To Next Level

Beyond Basic Dog Training

Class Overview

Building on the solid foundation established in our Beginners’ class, Intermediate Obedience Training takes your dog’s skills to new heights. This comprehensive program, designed for dogs who have mastered basic commands, introduces more challenging exercises and advanced control techniques.

We focus on extending your dog’s capabilities while strengthening their existing skills through increased duration, distance, and distractions.

During this program, your dog will perfect their response to essential commands like drop, place, and leave it, while learning to perform these skills with greater precision and reliability. A significant focus is placed on developing superior loose-leash walking and recall abilities, ensuring your dog responds consistently even in challenging environments.

We introduce both side and front hand signals, along with voice and no-voice commands, giving you multiple ways to communicate effectively with your dog.

The true value of Intermediate Training lies in the increased control and connection you’ll develop with your dog. As you progress through advanced exercises like stopping mid-recall and beginning off-leash healing, you’ll notice a remarkable improvement in your dog’s focus and responsiveness.

Our structured distraction exercises help proof your dog’s behaviour in real-world situations, creating a well-mannered companion who can maintain their training regardless of what’s happening around them.
