About

WHO WE ARE:
Make your dog the best trained in the neighborhood. So Cal Dog Therapy Training in Riverside, California, provides training for puppies and adult dogs. Our CGC dual-certified dog trainer and tester has more than 20 years of training experience, holds a degree in psychology, and maintains a complete list of references.

BEHAVIOURAL PUPPY TRAINING:
Start your puppy off on the right foot with training from certified professionals at So Cal Dog Therapy Training in Riverside, California. Our 6-week training course is for puppies 8 - 18 weeks old, and includes manners, socialization, and behavior management.

During the training class, you learn how to teach your puppy to come when called, as well as heel, sit, lie down, stay, and greet people. Puppies are trained to interact with other dogs in a positive way. We also work with you and your dog on home management issues such as biting, barking, potty training, and jumping. We are preparing you puppy for advanced training. Everything learned in puppy training will prepare your pet for intermediate training. The intermediate training is offered once your pet has reached 18 weeks to 6 months in age. This course builds on the basic training and provides off-leash and further socialization training. Advance beyond the basic training verbal and signal commands, as we teach your dog to respond to silent commands in level 2. In addition to silent commands, distance control is taught for when your dog is away from you. Add increased socialization controls and the path is paved to prepare your dog for CGC therapy work.

If your dog possesses an explosive personality, it may be a candidate for one-on-one training. Out-of-control dogs require more direct and specific training. Through one-on-one training, we help you gain control and become the leader in your relationship with your pet. Our training focuses on positive ways to get your dog's attention and maintain it.

When you contact us, we will prepare a time and schedule at our advanced training center. Dogs are more susceptible to learning in a comfortable and friendly environment. We teach your dog how to act, interact, and socialize.

CERTIFIED CGC AND THERAPY TRAINING:
After your dog has graduated basic training, their aptitude may make them a good candidate for CGC training. So Cal Dog Therapy Training in Riverside, California, offers courses for both of these titles.

CGC is a national award.The dog and the owner are listed in the national CGC registry. This is a training course for puppies age 18 weeks to 6 months old. If your dog is a caregiver, sign them up for our 50-hour course to become a certified therapy dog. Every therapy training class is taught one-on-one. At the end of the therapy training, your dog is presented with an official therapy vest and identification.
