Training Programs

Here at Underdog Training Academy, we don’t have specific training programs. First we conduct a free assessment. We give your dog a temperament test and take them through engagement drills. From there we will have a discussion with you about what we recommend, and you will let us know your expectations. Together we will create a training plan. We will give you a quote and a time frame.

​

Here are some things that you can expect us to add to your dog’s training plan depending on the time frame and unwanted behaviors we are addressing:

• Correcting and Claiming

• 7 Core Obedience Commands

• 5 Core Threshold Manners

• Loose Leash Walking

• Safety Commands

• Public Access Training

• Canine Good Citizen Exam Training

Here are some popular examples of unwanted behaviors we will show you how to redirect with very little effort. If you don’t see something listed, just ask, we can show you how to correct anything dealing with behavior and/or anxiety.

• Reactivity towards anything you can think of (people, dogs, cats, wildlife, cars, bikes, wheelchairs, scooters, skateboards/roller skates, strollers, carts, vacuums, lawn equipment, etc.)

• Separation Anxiety

• Stress in the crate

• Hard pullers on walks

• Door Dashers

• Jumping

• Nipping

• Biting

• Begging

• Barking

• Digging

• Resource Guarding

• Aggression

Please Note: We do not issue certifications after completion. This program prepares your dog to become a therapy dog. ​
