Does your dog play keep away from you when you call them? Lets fix that! Think of all of the fun adventures you could go on with your dog if you could truly trust that they would listen when you called them back to you. Off-leash reliability training gives dogs a level of freedom and opens the world up to them far beyond their backyards.
Our Rapid Recall program utilizes positive reinforcement paired with modern Ecollar technology to quicky instill a speedy response to a special whistle recall.
In addition to returning when called, your dog will be trained to remain at your side both static and in motion until you provide their release command.
Not all Ecollars are created equally and we only utilize well tested and respected brands for your dog's safety and well being. A specialized whistle and appropriate Ecollar are included in the purchase of your program, however if you already own an acceptable Ecollar we will happily discount the cost of the program by 20%.
Ecollar brands we accept for discount: Ecollar Technologies, Sport Dog, Dogtra.
While we require a minimum of 7 days to instill these behaviors into your dog, we would be happy to continue your program for additional days at the price of $130 per day. The initial 7 day $150 per day covers the cost of your equipment, but if you choose to continue we will gladly drop the price of the additional days to the 20% discounted rate.
Contact us to begin! You will be asked to fill out some paperwork that gives us the necessary info about you and your dog. We will discuss the basics about what we will do with while he/she is with us and answer any questions you may have.
Once we've received your paperwork we will set a start date based on our availability and will send your first invoice for half of the cost of the total program. Reservations are not secure until all paperwork is completed and the first payment is received. Since we only take a limited amount of students at a time, your desired start date may become unavailable if these things are not completed in a timely manner.
Please bring enough food for them for their entire stay and any medications/supplements they have on a regular basis. You are welcome to bring beds, blankets, special toys, treats, etc. to decorate their sleeping space as well as long as your puppy does not tear them up or destroy them.
Each day your dog will receive 5 dedicated training sessions, tons of play time, and healthy dog and human socialization. We will periodically send photos to let you know how they are doing, and you will likely see them appear on our social media in reels and photos too!
Did you know that your dog will receive 10% off of regular boarding with TCD for life after completing a program with usl? We spend a ton of time building a bond with your dog and want to see them again in the future!
If in the future you are interested in refreshing their training or teaching some new skills with another obedience-based board and train, we offer our graduates 50% off of any future program!
We can work and make improvements with dogs of any age, however the younger they are the less opportunity they will have had to practice bad habits and get away with them.
Please review the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) website for the most up-to-date recommended vaccination schedule.
For the safety of our staff, other guest dogs, and the dogs that live here on our property we require standard vaccination procedures. We are willing to accept legitimate titer results from a veterinarian that prove immunization in lieu of annual vaccines.
Nope! TCD does not require sterilization for any of our programs.
Absolutely, but you must make an appointment with us to do so. We host lots of events, care for other people's dogs, have private training clients, etc. throughout the day and we are not able to accommodate unexpected drop-ins. We would be happy to have you swing by but we need a heads up first.
We proudly follow the LIMA model of dog training, which stands for "Least Invasive, Minimally Aversive." While 90% of what we do is through positive reinforcement, we recognize that some behaviors that we as humans do not appreciate are self-reinforcing for a dog, so corrections to their behavior may be required. We will work to find the lowest level of correction required for the dog to stop pursuing that unwanted behavior and then immediately reward them for making better choices.
Your choice! You are welcome to come pick them up to take them, or if the appointment is local to us we would be happy to bring them as well! If doing the latter please let whatever service provider it is know that their trainer will be bringing them to their appointment and has permission to do so.
For this specific Rapid Recall program, yes we guarantee results delivered at the completion of this program. If your dog is not able to perform a reliable recall and remain at your side until released at the end of the seven days, we will keep them until they can at no extra charge to you. We document all of the work we do while your dog stays with us and will definitely be able to show you the difference in your dog with training and adjustments to their schedule, however it is 100% up to the client to follow our instructions and maintain the training once the dog returns home. If there is no intentional maintenance to the training once home again and the dog reverts back to ignoring their owner over time, that is not our responsibility to fix free-of-cost.
