Fundamentals: Basic Skills & Obedience

Build a strong foundation for real-world behavior with this comprehensive 12-week program, ideal for dogs six months and older.

Your dog will learn the Five Fundamental Skills every dog and owner should know—Name, Sit, Down, Come, and Stay—developing clear communication and reliable responsiveness to both voice commands and hand signals using Heeli’s science-based SAFE Training Method.

From there, you’ll progress to comfortable, controlled leash walking. Master the Five Leash Skills—Leash-Up, Shadowing, Loose-Leash Heel, Leave-It, and Wait—and learn how to guide your dog with confidence using Heeli’s Four C’s of Good Leadership.

This program is designed to build not just skills, but reliable behavior that holds up in everyday life.

Advanced Canine Good Citizen Training

 

Prepare your dog to earn the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Certification from the American Kennel Club (AKC) while strengthening reliability in real-world environments.

This program builds on your dog’s foundational skills, improving responsiveness to core behaviors—Name, Sit, Down, Come, and Stay—across increasing levels of distraction. You and your dog will develop the consistency and control needed for everyday situations as well as public settings.

We will also prepare you to confidently complete the ten CGC test items, reinforcing polite behavior, calm handling, and responsible ownership.

This course also serves as the next step for those interested in progressing toward service or therapy dog training.
