Getting Started with a FREE demonstration

With every perspective client Good Dog Camp begins with a FREE demonstration and evaluation with you and your dog.  During this visit we will come to your home in order to meet you and your dog as well as give you as much information as possible that is relevant to situation.  You will have an opportunity to see Annalissa not only work with her own dog, but also with your dog.  We will discuss our dog training method and philosophy, go over our various training packages in more detail, and of course answer any questions you may have.  This appointment is necessary to begin any of our obedience programs excluding our Puppy Consultations.  If you are in the Rochester, Byron, Stewartville, Kasson, Mantorville, Eyota, Mazeppa, Zumbrota, Pine Island, Oronoco, or Plainview MN, call or email us today to schedule an appointment for your Free Demonstration.

Puppy Consultation

Get your puppy started on the 'right paw' in their new home.  This program is designed for puppies between 7-16 weeks of age and is the perfect way to start laying the foundation to having the good dog you've always dreamed of.  In this course you will learn house training tips, leadership skills, handling exercises, and appropriate games and toys to play with your puppy.  We will also teach you how to stop puppy play biting, properly puppy socialization skills, how to walk your puppy on a leash and begin a basic introduction to obedience.  All puppy consultations are by appointment, last about 2 hours and are conducted in the convenience of your home with your family.

Private Dog Training Lessons

We offer a variety of different dog training programs to fit your needs, expectations and schedule.  Most of our dog training lessons are taught at your house or in your neighborhood.  While we think it's great for your dog to practice sit, down and come in your backyard, we hope our clients want to do as much as possible with their dogs. We also train in the real world with the distractions it has to offer.  We want you to be able to have your dog do what you want them to, despite the distractions around them.  Regardless of your dog's age, breed or personality we can help you build realistic goals for their training.  We will teach you how to maintain your dogs' behavior for the rest of their life. 

Good Dog Boot-Camp

So you want a Good Dog, but just don't have time to do training yourself, you're going on vacation or your dog has some serious behavior issues that need to be addressed?  Then the Good Dog Boot Camp board and train program might be right for you.  This highly successful program is where your dog will stay and train in our home for 10-14 days.  During this time your dog will be safely integrated into Annalissa's pack, be taught the confidence they need to eliminate previous issues and become the calm happy dog you've always wanted.  In addition to learning at her house, Annalissa will take your dog on field trips, teaching them how to handle any situation in any environment.  Upon your dog's return we will teach you what they learned and how to maintain their new skills.  Our Good Dog Boot Camp includes follow up lessons so you and your dog can have a smooth transition into a new lifestyle.
