Dog Training Course in San Diego
Dog Training Course $750
At Inception K9 Academy, our Dog Training Course is one of the most advanced dog obedience courses of its kind. This course is for dogs a year old or older. In this course, you will learn everything you need to know about owning a new dog. This course is 8 weeks long and is a one-on-one training course. We meet up once a week for one hour to go over and discuss the training material and commands for that particular week.
During our one hour session, I go over and demonstrate how to conduct the commands for the week with your dog. After the demonstration, I then hand your dog back to you for you to emulate the motions and gestures performed in the demonstration. Once you and I agree that you feel comfortable with the commands, then I will demonstrate the homework for the week. This homework is designed to ensure progress with each command for each week. This way it gets you and your dog more and more proficient each day as well as working more for verbal and physical praise rather than treats. Then each week I test you and your dog on the commands.
Here is a list of the material and commands we will be going over in the course:
- Operant & Classical Conditioning
- The Learning Theory of Dogs
- Lures
- Marker Training
- Nutrition & Toys
- Grooming your pet

Dog Training for Dogs of All Ages
Whether you have a brand new rambunctious puppy or an older dog who needs a bit of help with manners, dog training can be a great experience for you and your dog. Before you search for “dog training near me,” you should consider a few things about the training experience.
Is It Worth Training an Older Dog?
In spite of the old saying, you can teach an old dog new tricks, and it is worth training an older dog. While older animals may not learn as fast as puppies, a good training program with a professional dog trainer can work on basic commands, correct issues with potty training, teach new skills through positive reinforcement, and even refresh previous obedience training. This can give you and your dog a better life together.
Is Training Stressful for Dogs?
Training can be stressful for dogs, especially when they first begin the training process. Ask your dog's trainer to help you recognize the signs of stress during training classes and practice sessions. These may include sniffing, scratching, yawning, avoiding eye contact and lying down. You can decrease your dog's stress and anxiety by using positive reinforcement training and making training a fun exercise. Keep the environment relaxed, and when you give a command and your dog responds correctly, provide plenty of praise and attention. Lots of snuggles help, too.
Is Dog Training Worth the Money?
If you want an obedient and well-behaved animal, then training courses on a regular schedule and with the proper equipment are definitely worth the money. Your dog's trainer will help you set realistic training goals, and your dog will learn everything from basic commands to more advanced movements. You can also ensure that your animal is properly housebroken, which is always important.
As you and your dog get more advanced in training, you might choose to move to a higher-level program with off-leash training. A private lesson or two can build special skills, and you might even find that your animal has what it takes to become one of the most helpful and comforting therapy dogs. You'll never know unless you try. So enroll your dog in one of our training courses. You and your dog will both learn a lot.
