If we don't have a program to fit your needs, contact us and we will design one.

SouthPaw Training offers a variety of training programs from Group (max. 8), Private (one on one) and In-Home Training.  All of our Basic Programs give you the necessary training to accomplish the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) testing, as long as your dog's temperament is good. 
We also have the ability to take your training further than just the basics.  We offer the most comprehensive program in and In-Door/Out-door for Off-Leash environments, training distractions with other dogs and people.
 
At our facility we hold classes for Basic, Intermediate and Advanced Off-Leash obedience training.  SouthPaw Training has an Air-conditioned Training Room, with a 10 acre fenced training field to provide a safe environment for training Off-leash.

We have CGC (Canine Good Citizen) testing available several times a year, with our in-house CGC evaluator.

Our Basic Training class combines Obedience and Behavior Modification, using a "Work to Earn" method.  We offer students the opportunity to learn to communicate and bond with their dogs, giving the owner the ability to have control in distracting situations.  Our students get the knowledge needed to assist them in taking control of the behavior problems, others might turn away.


    Intermediate Training:
Group - $125.00 for 6-week session
Private - $595.00 for 6-week session

This level takes the basics one step further, teaching your dog to learn to use the trained commands in distracting situations.  In this 6-week training period, students will train using long-lines, while working on control with distances and vocal praise. The goal for this level is for the dog to learn the control needed, to progress to the off-leash training.  Your dog will learn to "Work to Earn" his Off-leash freedom.  

    Freedom Training (Off-Leash):
Group - $125.00 for 6-week session
Private - $595.00 for 6-week session

The Off-Leash program offers the students a safe environment, to teach the dog to understand the importance of his freedom.  This class allows you the opportunity to train safely, while acquiring the needed distractions and situations to teach this bond with your dog. ( This class works best in a group setting.)

    Graduate Program: 
Program Pending
 
The Graduate program was actually designed by our Graduate Students, giving them the opportunity to return for socialization and distraction control.  Our students designed and set the price they felt was affordable, allowing them to come to any of our Basic, Intermediate or Advanced class, at any time for a year (from the date paid.)  

    8-Week Focus:
$150.00  - $125.00 for second dog.

The 8-Week Focus program works on attention and motivation for the Competition ring.  The focus work is good for Rally, Competition Obedience, Agility, or any part or your dogs training.

This is a structured program that walks you through an 8 week step by step plan, to improve your dogs motivation skills and most of all the attention level while you are working with your dog.
 
Each week has a planned layout of exercises and games to detail your focus and improve your dogs skills.

    Rally Obedience:
$54.00 - per month / $50.00 for second dog
Weekly - $14.00 per week

Rally Obedience is obedience designed withyout of numbered signs to be performed with obedience.   Rally was designed to be a motivational tool used to bridge the beginner dog into competition obedience.  In Rally you are able to talk and motivate your dog through the course performing the signs. 
Using Rally has helped to excite a dog into wanting to work the structure of obedience through using the motivations.  Most dogs find it a great bond and find they like doing obedience better than before.

Come join us in our Rally group.  Rally meets weekly on Thursday evenings.

Please call ahead to notify us of your interest.
