TRAINING DAYS

What day training gives you

DRAFT — for Shanna’s review. Outcomes drawn from this page.

  • Professional training during the day, with evenings and weekends at home with your family
  • Stronger foundations and more consistency with everyday skills
  • Recall and reliable responses around distractions
  • Advanced reliability for behaviour modification or sport goals
  • Weekly coaching and support so you can maintain progress at home
  • Day training dogs are also part of our daycare program, learning to be neutral around other dogs — and depending on the dog, they may join the social group to learn appropriate social skills.

THE TRAINING DAY

How it works

A full training day, then home at night.

Your dog works through an individualized plan based on the evaluation. The week is designed to build clear foundations and then carry those skills into more demanding situations. We take just two training dogs at a time, combined across day training and board & train.

YOUR ROLE

Owner involvement

We start the work. You learn how to keep it going.

IS IT RIGHT FOR YOU

Who it is for

More support than lessons. More home time than board & train.

Day training can suit busy owners who want professional momentum without having their dog away overnight.

  • Busy owners who still want to be involved
  • Dogs needing consistent daily repetition
  • Recall and distraction-proofing goals
  • Fear, reactivity and over-arousal
  • Advanced reliability and off-leash work
  • Owners ready to follow through at home

Our guarantee

DRAFT — for Shanna’s review. Guarantee text copied verbatim from the FAQ.

I guarantee that I will give you the knowledge and skills you need to have a well behaved dog. It is the commitment and cooperation of the owner, household, environment and the health of the dog that I have no control over and therefore cannot ethically give a guarantee.

YOUR FIRST VISIT

Start with clarity

Meet first. Choose the program second.

The evaluation looks at temperament, behaviour, current skills and the way you work together. From there, you will get a recommendation for the best-fit path.

What the evaluation covers

A focused 60-minute, in-person session at the Endeavour K9 facility.

  • Your dog’s temperament and behaviour
  • Current training and baseline skills
  • Your goals and household routine
  • Whether day training is the right format

Dogs over five months old need an evaluation before entering a training program.

Build the foundation here. Bring the progress home.

Start with an evaluation and find the day-training schedule that fits your dog’s needs and your goals.

Day training programs start at $2,195 + HST. Final pricing depends on your goals and length of stay.

Our starting price covers our on-leash Foundation Program, best suited to young, social dogs without behaviour concerns. Extended training, off-leash work, and behaviour modification will require longer programs. At your evaluation, we’ll recommend the best fit based on your dog’s needs and your goals, with your dog’s progress guiding the training.

Wonderful service and such helpful advice when I decided to make the switch from kibble to raw. Thanks again Shanna!
