All training classes are done at the time that is convenient for the owner.
Training is done either in the environment where the dog lives or at the training center.
Training is done inside, outdoors and on the
streets with real life situations.
Problems can be addressed directly.

Negative aspects of group classes and out of home training
-Most dog obedience classes are held or given in
open halls or centers, with too many
dogs in each class.
This is a major drawback for both the dog and owner.
-With with such places dogs aren't exposed
to
the realities
of
the real world
and all of
the distractions that
go with it.
-Many dogs that appear to listen in class fall
back once
they
go back to
their
home
environment, where they misbehave.
-The classes held are to large for 1 or 2 trainers.
-It lacks the one on one individual
attention between the pet and the trainer.
Which is very important to catch mistakes during training.
-Bad behavior can't be corrected by the trainer with so many
other dogs
in
class.
-Dogs attention is all over the place and can't concentrate.
-Lack of concentration needed between the owner and their dog
is
interrupted always.
-To owners are to busy keeping other dogs away from one another so thy miss out.
-Age differences
among dogs in the class.
-Unfriendly dogs
in class.
-No exposure to
the outdoor traffic and noise.
-It is under a controlled environment
-In a controlled environment outside the home the possibilities for a proper corrections
is not possible. Problems like door darting, keeping the dog out of certain rooms,
outdoor perimeter
control, stealing food, counter surfing, jumping and much more...
these would need direct attention and corrections.
-Limited sessions.
-Missed classes
become your loss.
-Many more reasons...
