Adult Dog Training Programs

Training for dogs beyond puppyhood requires understanding their unique needs and experiences. Whether your dog is an adolescent navigating new challenges, a rescued dog adjusting to a new home, or a mature adult seeking to strengthen basic manners, this program focuses on building reliable obedience and everyday skills.

At Furry Elite, we create customized training plans rooted in positive reinforcement and science-based methods. We prioritize your dog’s emotional well-being and engagement while teaching essential commands like recall, sit, stay, and loose leash walking. This approach fosters confidence and strengthens the bond between you and your dog, helping them succeed in real-life situations.

Our Adult Dog Training program is ideal for owners committed to supporting their dog’s continued growth and creating a calm, respectful partnership.

Adult Dog In-Home Training

Overview and Benefits
Adult Dog In-Home Training is designed to create a strong foundation of manners and communication in the environment where your dog spends most of their time. Sessions take place in your home, allowing us to observe your dog’s behavior in their everyday surroundings and develop strategies that fit naturally into your routine. Training focuses on essential skills such as recall, leash manners, impulse control, and calm behavior around distractions. We also address common challenges like barking or jumping while building confidence and reinforcing positive habits.

The first step is a one-hour consultation where we learn about your dog, your household, and your training goals. After this session, you will receive a customized training plan tailored to your dog’s needs and lifestyle. Ongoing sessions are available to reinforce skills, refine obedience, and help your dog succeed in real-life situations.
