3 Week Sleepover

VIP (Very Important Pets)


In-School obedience training is available in our home on a limited basis. Guests are treated as family members, and every effort is made to ensure an enjoyable and stress free stay. For those dogs staying for the sleepover, they get their own individual room (in our home), complete with all their luxuries brought from home. Sleepover guests get to participate in all doggie daycare activities from 7:00 am until the last pick-up at 7:00 pm.  This service is an ideal option for dogs that may have a difficult time adjusting to a boarding kennel, and for owner’s who prefer a more personal environment for their companion. A stay in our home might be compared to a “Bed & Breakfast”.  Every effort is made to stick closely to your dog’s daily routine, as consistency reduces stress. Guests are exercised twice daily, and have the option of playing with other dogs if they desire. In-School Sleepover guests are constantly working on obedience and behavior skills throughout the day, given ample personal attention, and good manners are always encouraged.

Flexible Training Options!

 

In-School Training (Doggie College)
Do you have a new dog in your home but no time to train him? Is everybody working long hours and have no time for group obedience classes? Are you too busy running kids to practices and games in the evenings to attend a dog obedience class? You may want to consider having your dog professionally trained at Rolling Meadows Academy of Dog Training.  Tell me more.

 

Private Lessons
If you choose to do the training yourself, you have the option of training at our location or in the comfort of your own home.  With private lessons, you are the one actually training your dog. You are taught new exercises at each lesson and need to practice with your dog throughout the week to prepare for the next lesson.  Tell me more.

 

Group Classes
Great starts lead to fantastic finishes!  Enroll in our Group Classes anytime! You will never have to wait to start a group training class again.  Our unique, revolutionary courses lets you attend classes at your own pace.  Tell me more.

 

Day School

Dogs who attend Daycare may attend our Doggie Day School program to teach basic obedience and etiquette such as; name recognition, sit, down, come, wait, leave it, drop it and loose leash walking.  For part of the Daycare day your dog will spend time separate from the playgroup with a trainer.  After the lesson your dog will be returned to the playgroup to hang out with friends.

You will receive handling sessions when you pick your dog up at the end of the day to help you learn how to reinforce the commands and teach your pet dog how to follow through with the training.  see doggie daycare
 

Cost: $200.00 for 10 days or $50.00 per day

Group Obedience & Etiquette Classes

"Public School For Dogs"

 

Great starts lead to fantastic finishes!

Enroll in our Group Classes anytime! You will never have to wait to start a group training class again.  Our unique, revolutionary courses lets you attend classes at your own pace.

 

Our Group Classes are taught in 8 week sessions. Each class meets once a week for 1 hour. 'The Motivational Method' is a step-by-step process, where each week builds on the previous week. During class, the instructor will teach you how to train your dog to do the steps for that week. Your ultimate success will depend on the training sessions your dog receives at home throughout the week. You will be provided with written "homework sheets" to help guide you through your training at home.

 

Everybody comes to class with different goals for their dogs. Our Basic Obedience & Etiquette Classes provide a solid foundation, whether your goal is a well mannered pet or ultimately an advanced obedience competition title. Just as the weekly classes build on one another, there are 3 levels of obedience classes which progress through more and more advanced levels of training.

 

After 8 classes, owners and their dogs are generally ready (but not required) to test-out to the next class level. Test-outs are conducted as soon as you are ready after the required 8 classes.  At the end of each Test-Out, we offer CGC testing for our Graduates.

 

Group Class Orientation
You must first attend a 1 hour Group Class Orientation without your dog before beginning Group Classes. This required class will cover information necessary to prepare you for our unique 'Rolling Enrollment' Group Classes. We will discuss training terms and equipment, dog behavior and socialization, and class structure so that you are able to jump into classes right away. You will also receive a packet with two informative books. After attending the Orientation, puppies under six months will enter into Puppy Classes, and dogs six months and older will enter into Basic Obedience & Etiquette Class.

 

Observe a Group Class free of charge!

We are the only dog training facility in North Carolina to offer this opportunity. This is an ideal way to get a feel for the teaching style and receive feedback from other students.


No aggressive dogs will be allowed in group class.  Please seek in-school training or private instruction if your dog is aggressive towards people, or other dogs.
