- “Heel” They will walk right beside of you, either consistently on your left or right side, either on or OFF the leash. AND Bonus: Will not pull you down the street on his leash!

***Dogs with aggression or reactivity issues are not eligible for this program – but ARE eligible for our Aggressive Dog 2 Week Board and Train Program – explained below.
Go BEYOND obedience with one or more of the following:
Service Dog Training
Diabetic Alert (or Addison’s Alert) Service Dog Program: Are you a Type 1 insulin-dependent diabetic in need of a service dog that will actively alert you prior to suffering a debilitating low in blood glucose, or an Addison’s Disease sufferer with low cortisol levels dangerous to your health? Do you have a hard time knowing when your sugar may be dropping, and worry that you may be a victim of a low while sleeping or just going about your daily activities? Finally, are you ready to take your dog (or help us find you a dog FREE of charge) and dedicate yourself to a 6 month – 1 year training program to help get some control back in your life?? We are here to help! This program includes Basic Obedience (including a complimentary CGC evaluation), and up to a year’s worth of weekly scent training sessions and consultations to help you and your dog learn to alert at home, in the car, while walking down the street, in an elevator, and (for dogs capable of it) while you sleep! This program includes an e-collar during Basic Obedience, but the CGC will need to be passed without it (and we will help you wean your dog from the collar to get the same obedience with it and without it). Scent work continues after the CGC has been completed and can last 4-10 months before a true active alert is attained (depending on age of dog and how hard the handler works at home). This program generally runs $5,000 – $15,000 but price will vary by dog and handler needs.
Psychiatric Alert and Response Service Dog Program: Do you have anxiety attacks that make daily tasks difficult? Not know when they are going to occur? Perhaps you have night terrors that make it impossible for you to get a good night’s sleep? If you fit one or more of those categories – we can help you! Our 8 to 12 week course includes basic obedience, testing for your CGC, anxiety alerts as they are happening, turning on lights for you at night on command, and even closing a door on command to help you feel more secure when needed. This program runs $900 – $1300 for classes, or $3700+ for a Board and Train and classes combination program.
Autism Support Service Dog Program: Autism can leave the world confusing and difficult to navigate for children and adults alike – which is where our Autism Support Service Dog Program comes in to help. Do you, or a close family member struggle with repetitive speech or movements? The inability to speak when overloaded by sensory input from what is going on in the immediate vicinity? How about the urge to get up and leave the room or area you are in (for different reasons that sometimes you can’t explain?
This course will not only give your dog the ability to focus on you or an affected child and listen in all environments, but will also teach your dog to actively interrupt that repetitive speech or body movement, comfort you when you feel overwhelmed, and trail (using scent) an autistic individual that has left their caregivers without warning. This program can run $1300 – $2500 for classes, or $4100+ for a Board and Train and classes combination program.
Therapy Dog Development/Emotional Support Animal Course: Is your goal to have your dog become a therapy dog or perhaps just well-behaved enough to serve as your Emotional Support Animal? This specially designed 8-lesson course prepares you and your dog for their therapy dog testing and certification (on the therapy route), or to be a well-behaved family member able to comfort you when needed (the ESA route). This includes the e-collar and a 15ft training leash. This program is $900.
Mobility Support Service Training: Do you have a dog 60+ lbs that is healthy enough for service work? Do you have a disability that affects your mobility? This 8-session course includes all 7 commands included in the basic obedience course (above) but also prepares your dog for real world scenarios as well as some advanced commands (like stand) that will help your dog assist you on command! This includes the e-collar and a 15ft training leash. This program is $900. Additional classes to learn how to open/close doors on command, attain a forced fetch, or turning on a light run at a per lesson charge of $100 each.

Aggressive Dog 2 Week Board and Train: We keep your dog for 2 weeks and help them stabilize into the manageable family member they are capable of being! We pick your dog up at your front door step (as long as you live within an hour of Knoxville, East TN, Sevierville, or Asheville) and we do ALL the work for you. By the end of their session, your dog will know all 7 basic commands included in basic, and you won’t need to go through the brain damage of teaching commands to them (or dedicating 45 minutes to an hour EVERY day for a month on training). During your dog’s stay, they will live with one of our certified trainers as if they were one of their own – going everywhere with them and working on desensitization to the things that set them off in the past! Your dog will go where our trainer goes, and you will get photo and video updates during the entire 2-week session (so you know what they are learning and doing).
At the very end, we spend 2 hours with you showing you how to maintain that training at home, but the best part of this package is that the obedience comes with a lifetime support guarantee!!
