Dog training 101: What to expect

Obedience training

Class Times and Dates:

Please call us to schedule your dog's Obedience Training or Specialty Training course.

What To Expect From Us:

Your dog will stay with us for 8-12 weeks.
During that time, we will reset destructive behaviors using the Mattox Method.
By living away from their owners in a farm-like environment, the dogs will encounter a structured lifestyle that will cause them to adapt to our loving and ordered lifestyle.
We will treat your dog as if they were our own. In our house, the dogs always come first.
We will exercise, groom, and ensure your dog receives the best nutrition while staying with us.

What We Expect From You:

We require the first four weeks to be paid upfront.
Please be on time. If you cannot make a lesson, let us know, and we can reschedule.
Listen to our instructions and follow all our directions strictly.

Materials You Will Need:

We will make an individualized plan specific to your dog's needs.

Nutrition And Health:

Before a dog comes to us, we must ensure the dog is in good health and up to date on shots.
Nutrition is a critical factor in the health and training of a dog. We use raw meat, homemade supplements, vitamins, and minerals at Mattox Dog Training Academy.
You must provide dry food, and canned dog goods, for your dog, and we will provide the rest.

Follow Up:

Two weeks after the training, some dogs may need to come back for a follow-up. We can work on anything you need, and we will clarify any issues arising after you return home.
This follow-up visit is included in the cost of training.
