On leash Obedience: (4-6 weeks) In this course your dog will learn to follow the commands, "here, heel, sit, stay, down, and kennel" while on a 6 ft leash.  Your dog will have two training sessions a day and one free session where the dog can socialize and relax.

Off Leash Obedience: (4-6 weeks) In this course your dog will learn the same commands as On Leash Obedience without the added burden of the leash. Your dog will be fully collar-conditioned for "here, heel, sit, stay, down, and kennel".

Behavior Modification Overview:  Dogs are creatures of habit just like you and I.  All dogs can develop habits that can make life difficult, and can often times make our friends and family nervous to be around the dog.  Often times these poor habits are caused by improper training or no training at all.  Other times, we can see dogs become aggressive due to insecurity and fear.  No matter what is causing your dog to misbehave, Southern Tradition Kennels, will be happy to assess your dog and modify this behavior so that you can trust your dog in any situation.
