Dog Socialization Programs
Socializing your dog ensures its ability to react to the world in a healthy way, without fear or aggression. Dogs who have not been socialized with other animals and humans can become fearful in new situations, such as meeting new people, being around other pets, or visiting new places. The aim of “Good Dog and Beyond” Socialization Programs is to prepare your dog for new situations… and opportunities!
Proper socialization will give your dog the skills that will enable them to handle any new situation with confidence. Good dog socialization will benefit you and your dog in countless ways throughout your relationship!
When done correctly, socialization helps dogs develop into well-adjusted, confident, and friendly animals and partners…for life!
Canine Enrichment for Dogs and their Human Partners
Good Dog and Beyond believes in making training fun where their clients see results quickly while developing enriching, strong relationships with their dogs!
Canine Enrichment Exercises and Activities reduce stress for the dog and can occupy and train the dogs mind and energy! Want to reduce bad behavior and habits? We’ll help you enrich your dog’s life and give them something different to think about and do instead of getting into trouble! There are lots of long-term benefits to be gained with Good Dog and Beyond’s Canine Enrichment Program for your dog’s body, health…and mind!
Stimulate your dog’s mind to keep your Best Friend Physically, Mentally and Emotionally Fit… all at the same time!
