What Dog Training in Maryville Looks Like
Foundations come first: name game, marker clarity, leash communication, and calm stationing. Then we layer distractions that match your dog’s stage—distance, direction, duration, and difficulty—before proofing in busier settings like Sandy Springs Park, Bicentennial Greenbelt Park, the Greenway, and downtown storefronts. For board-and-train, each day blends structured obedience reps with decompression and neutrality practice. For private lessons, you’ll get a clear, printable plan with bite-size homework and check-ins to keep momentum.
We’re balanced and fair. That means rewarding the behavior we want, setting consistent boundaries, and giving dogs a predictable routine. Most families notice immediate improvements in pulling and over-excitement; bigger wins show up a couple of weeks later when the dog can relax around distractions and follow the first cue in familiar Blount County spots.
