Who it's for

When once a week isn't enough.

Busy owners

Work, kids and travel don't leave time for daily training. Zac puts in the reps, then teaches you the short version.

Consistency trouble

You know what to do, but the household isn't on the same page. Four weeks of structure resets the dog and the routine.

Stubborn habits

Pulling, jumping, ignoring recall and bolting out the door break faster with training every single day.

  • Daily training sessions
  • Crate and place cot routines
  • Obedience on leash and off leash where it's safe

Learning place. Every breed, same standard.

A typical four weeks

Week by week.

Every plan is adjusted to the dog, but most follow this path.

Settle in

Crate and place routines, engagement, marker training and leash foundations.

Core commands

Sit, down, place and recall on a long line.

Real world

Distractions, duration and outings in busy places.

Proof & handoff

Off leash work where it's safe, proofing, and your handoff session.

Why four weeks

Four full weeks, not a crash course.

A week or two can start new habits. Four weeks gives Zac time to build them, test them in the real world, and hand you a dog that holds up after it comes home.

The handoff hour matters just as much. You'll learn the commands, the timing and the small habits that keep the training alive at home.

Before drop off

What your dog needs.

  • Current vaccinations, including bordetella
  • Flea, tick and heartworm prevention
  • Your dog's regular food for four weeks
  • Any medications, with written instructions
