Why Positive Approach Dog Training?


Use of Positive Reinforcement Training
We have helped you train literally thousands of dogs over the past twenty years. Our positive training methods produce great results without the need for choke chains, prong collars, shock collars or other types of physical correction and punishment. Research shows that dogs trained using these methods are generally more socially balanced and well adjusted, making them better family members.
Small Class Sizes
Classes and workshops are small in size, (4 per class), and held at our private training center. All of our training, including classes, is available 6 days a week (Monday-Saturday) and times are varied to accommodate your busy, changing schedule.
We Can Come to You
Private lessons are held at our training center, your home, or wherever need be to train your dog most effectively.
Trainer Certification
Positive Approach is the only dog training center that requires its lead trainers to have their Certified Professional Dog Trainers Certification (CCPDT).

Well Trained Dog/Puppy
Level I - $225
Establish an amazing foundation for your relationship with your dog. We cover sit, lie down, and stay; leave-it alone; walk nicely on leash; “wait” at the front door; and of course “come here” even in distracting surroundings. Have a polite, well behaved pet all day, every day. (4-week course)

PLUS1
Level II - $220
This stepping-stone class will take what you’ve learned in your first class and apply it to this fun, three-week interactive class with your dog. We will have a “playground for higher learning” set up to work with your dog and grow the bond between the two of you. (3-week course)

Less Talk More Action
Level III - $205
This class builds on what you have done in Level I & II. We “take it to the streets!” The course is offered from May thru the first of September and is outdoors. We go to public areas and work our dogs. This level really tests you and your dog in real life situations and is exciting! (4-week course)

Canine Good Citizen (CGC)
Level IV - $190
At this point we are working on getting you and your dog equipped to pass the CGC Test, at the end of the course. We take what you have been working on, through the other three classes, and prepare you to take the final test on week four of this course. (4-week course)
