Program overview
Advanced Obedience is designed for handlers who want complete control. We layer distance, duration, and distraction into every command and develop off-leash fluency so your dog stays responsive around crowds, wildlife, vehicles, and high-value rewards.
Trainers proof behaviors in real-world scenarios such as busy sidewalks, elevators, restaurants, and trails while coaching you on timing and handling. The result is a dog that performs with enthusiasm and reliability anywhere you need them.
Advanced skill set

Training progression
