Trainer, David Petrie with his Tibetan Spaniel and Bull Mastiff.

Would you love to take your dog to a parade? Enjoy your family dog more with professional obedience training. Apollo Canine Services offers safe, non-abusive, one-on-one training including socialization and confidence skills. All the training takes place in a village setting, giving your dog the benefit of learning "basic on leash obedience" with every day experiences. We expose your dog to real life stimuli that cannot be duplicated in a classroom. Your dog will learn to walk properly at the heel position as well as sit, down, stand, stay, and come to heel with verbal and hand commands. More importantly, your dog will learn to function in real life circumstances while gaining confidence and social skills.

Best of all, we do all the work! Owners are not required to attend several classes but just one session at the end of your dog's stay with us. This too, will take place in a village setting, giving you an example of what you can do to reinforce your dog's training. Our program is easy and we encourage all family members, including children, to attend the final session. Our kennels are new and offer your dog both indoor protection plus outdoor exercise. Your pet will receive loving care and attention. With 36 years of experience, we have trained all breeds of dogs. We recommend dogs 4-5 months old and up for obedience training. We have successfully trained dogs 9-10 years old. It is never too late for obedience work.
