Private Dog Training Sessions
Looking for a personalized training experience tailored specifically to your dog’s unique needs? Our Private Dog Training Sessions offer one-on-one coaching with a professional trainer, ensuring focused attention on your dog’s behavior, progress, and development. Whether you’re starting with basic obedience or tackling more complex behavioral issues, our private sessions are designed to set your dog up for success.
What Are Private Sessions?
Private sessions provide individualized training in the comfort of your own home, at our training facility, or even outdoors in a park. This flexible format allows us to focus entirely on your dog’s specific challenges and goals without the distractions of a group setting. Each session is customized to address your dog’s temperament, learning pace, and any particular problem areas.
Who Are Private Sessions For?
New dog owners looking to establish good habits and foundational training.
Dogs that need to work on specific behavior issues like reactivity, leash pulling, or separation anxiety.
Owners seeking flexible scheduling or personalized instruction.
Puppies in need of basic obedience and socialization.
Dogs with aggression or fear-based behaviors that need careful attention.
Busy individuals who prefer the convenience of in-home training or have limited availability for group classes.
What We Teach:
Basic Obedience: Sit, stay, down, come, leave it, and more.
Leash Training: Walking politely on a leash, stopping pulling, and maintaining focus.
Behavior Modification: Addressing problem behaviors like barking, jumping, chewing, or aggression.
Socialization: Helping your dog interact appropriately with other dogs and people.
Advanced Training: For dogs that are ready to move beyond the basics with commands like off-leash training, recall, or trick training.

Home Environment Training: In-home sessions allow us to train your dog where they’re most comfortable and where many behavior issues occur.

Behavior Modification Training
Does your dog struggle with challenging behaviors that are affecting your daily life? At Myrmidon K9, we understand how overwhelming and frustrating it can be to handle issues like aggression, anxiety, or fear-based behaviors. Our Behavior Modification program is designed to address these complex problems using proven, real-world techniques, helping your dog become a happier, well-adjusted companion.
What is Behavior Modification?
Behavior modification focuses on changing unwanted behaviors by addressing their underlying causes. Rather than just managing the symptoms, we aim to resolve the root of the problem using positive reinforcement, desensitization, and counter-conditioning techniques. Our experienced trainers specialize in working with dogs that exhibit behaviors such as:
Aggression: Reactivity towards other dogs, people, or specific situations.
Separation Anxiety: Excessive distress when left alone, including barking, destructive behavior, or house soiling.
Fear-Based Behavior: Shyness, phobias (such as loud noises or strangers), or avoidance behavior.
Resource Guarding: Protecting food, toys, or spaces aggressively.
Compulsive Behaviors: Excessive licking, tail chasing, or pacing.
Reactivity on Leash: Overexcitement, lunging, or barking while on walks.
Our Approach
We believe in using proper and healthy methods that focus on building trust and confidence in your dog. Here’s how we approach behavior modification:
Assessment and Consultation: We begin with an in-depth consultation to assess your dog’s behavior, environment, and triggers. This allows us to understand the specific challenges and create a tailored plan.
Customized Training Plan: Based on the assessment, we design a step-by-step training program that targets the unwanted behavior. This plan may include counter-conditioning (teaching the dog to associate the trigger with positive experiences), desensitization (gradually exposing the dog to the trigger in controlled settings), and teaching alternative behaviors.
Positive Reinforcement: We reinforce desired behaviors using rewards, ensuring that your dog learns in encouraging environment.
Owner Involvement: Successful behavior modification requires commitment from the owner. We work closely with you to ensure you understand how to manage your dog’s behavior and reinforce training at home.
Common Issues We Address:
Barking or lunging at other dogs or people
Overexcitement and hyperactivity
Fear of loud noises, strangers, or new environments
Inappropriate elimination (house soiling)
Destructive chewing or digging
Aggressive displays like growling or biting
Why Choose Us?

Private Sessions: One-on-one training in your home or at our facility, focusing on your dog’s unique needs.

Board and Train Program: The Ranch Experience

In our Board and Train program, your dog will receive intensive, one-on-one training sessions throughout their stay. Whether your dog needs help with basic obedience, advanced commands, socialization, or behavioral issues like aggression or anxiety, our program is tailored to meet their specific needs. The immersive environment helps accelerate learning, as your dog gets continuous reinforcement of good behaviors, and we work on their problem areas every day.

Leash Manners: Walking politely on leash, avoiding pulling, and staying focused.

Program Features:
