New Skete Dog Training

---

 Your dog will be happy and busy the entire time he/she is at New Skete.    There is plenty of mental and physical stimulation to keep your dog engaged and content as well as time for rest.  You are welcome to bring your dog’s favorite bedding or blanket along with a special toy.  

Your dog will be thrilled, when you return, to show you all he/she has learned. 

 Your dog will get two formal sessions and one informal session over the course of the day.

These will include learning to walk politely on leash and the other basic training skills, distraction training, and off-leash work that focuses on reliable recall.

This integrated program is designed to make you dog the companion you dreamed of. 

 Your dog will be trained and cared for by the Monks of New Skete.  

Brother Christopher, Director of Training, is a long-standing Hall of Fame member of the International Association of Canine Professionals.  

For over 40 years, New Skete, has dedicated itself to providing the best possible companion dogs for you and your family.

New Skete offers a board and train program.  Some refer to this type of program as a training camp.

At time of scheduled drop-off you will spend approximately one hour in review with one the brothers.  When you return at your scheduled time, you will spend a minimum of two hours in review and hands-on training with Brother Christopher.

The brothers will work with you until you are comfortable handling  your dog. 

At your pick-up meeting, you will be presented with a “manual” for continuing your dog's training at home. This manual covers general information such as getting started, the ten commands, review of the go-to place command, information on the e-collar, and training exercises written specifically for you and your dog. 

If you follow the program consistently, you will reinforce the training which has already taken place and will continue to build a relationship with your dog that is mutually fulfilling. 

Our training includes support for the life of your dog.  

The program includes follow up to insure your happiness and success.

Upon returning home with your dog, should you have questions, simply email us.  We will email, call, Skype, use videos, or schedule a visit to address your questions.
