Basic Training Sessions

The Basic Training Sessions are targeted towards dogs who need work on basic training skills for things like: jumping on guests, barking at front window, barking at the door, bolting through the door, leash pulling, and excited or anxious leash reactivity towards animals, things, or people.

In WildFree’s Basic Training Sessions Jax teaches you and your dog (8+ months old) how to work together as partners using energy and body language rather than equipment. Her teaching methodology revolves around understanding how dogs perceive and respond to body language and energy cues. Jax emphasizes the importance of clarity in communication with your dog, highlighting that without clear instructions, expecting obedience becomes unrealistic. This allows trust and mutual respect to be created between you and your pup.

Basic Training Sessions at the WildFree Farm are $200/session + GST.

In-home Basic Training Sessions are $200/session + travel cost & GST.

Understanding that working with your dog requires time and commitment, there is a recommendation of 5 or more sessions for you and your dog.

The Basic Training Sessions is targeted to help you and your dog with basic training. The Basic Training Sessions is available for most dogs, including dogs with minor reactive behaviour such as excessive leash pulling, distraction by other animals, anxious or excited barking, etc. If your dog is more reactive or displaying other behavioral issues, we’d be happy to discuss other training options, such as the Canine Etiquette Course.
