Advanced dog training
Emergency recall, impulse control and off-leash obedience.
Advanced training stops being entertainment and becomes safety. A well-trained emergency recall can save your dog's life. We work on reliability here: the cue works even against the strongest distraction (a cat running, another dog playing, food on the floor).
