MDT Foundation Training Program
The MDT Foundation Training Program is designed for dog owners who want a calmer, better-mannered, more responsive dog at home and in public.
This private dog training program is ideal for dogs who need help with everyday obedience, leash walking, jumping, listening around distractions, recall, impulse control, and polite manners. It is a great fit for friendly but out-of-control dogs, high-energy dogs, easily distracted dogs, and dogs that need a stronger foundation before advancing into off-leash training or more challenging environments.
The goal of the MDT Foundation Training Program is to improve communication, create clearer expectations, and help your dog become easier to manage, more enjoyable to live with, and more reliable around everyday distractions.
This Program Can Help With:
- On leash basic to intermediate obedience
- Leash pulling
- Jumping on people
- Not listening
- Overexcitement
- Go to a predetermined “place” and stay there
- Recall and attention
- Door manners
- Impulse control
- Polite behavior around people and dogs
- Building confidence and communication
The MDT Foundation Training Program is best for dogs who need better manners, improved obedience, and more reliable behavior, but do not require an advanced behavior modification program.
