“Magic” SeeMe Dog Training

In-House Training sessions during your pups daytime or overnight care with Erin O’Rourke of Magic Paws Dog Training

Training Sessions

We are happy to introduce the option for your dog to get some special attention and learn some new skills while having fun in Daytime or Overnight Care. Dogs who enroll in training will get one session per day to work on skills of your choice. Sessions will be conducted one on one, not in a play group setting unless otherwise noted. Your dog will learn to be a happy, willing, learner, and active participant in the training process. You will also have the opportunity to follow through with training in your own home to continue improving the skills your dog learns.

What dogs can benefit from this?

We believe that all dogs can benefit from training! From behavior modification, to basic obedience, to tricks and games, we believe training should be a fun and enjoyable experience for dog and human. Training this way provides mental and physical stimulation to a dog that they might miss out on otherwise, helps build relationships between dogs and humans, builds a dog’s confidence and helps them become more comfortable in the world, and more!

Recommendations for In-House Training at SeeMe Dog:

• Basic commands, like sit, stay, come, etc.

• Leash manners

• - Confidence building exercises

• - Fitness and body awareness exercises

• - Canine Good Citizen preparation

• - Practicing social skills with other dogs (will occur in a group setting)

Expectations for Training:

When your dog is enrolled in training, you will receive an update after the session has been completed, which may include a written or verbal description of what was done, pictures, videos, or any combination of these.

Sessions will vary in length depending on dog’s ability, skills being worked on, and other factors, but should be around 30-45 minutes. All dogs are individuals and learn at different speeds, so there is no guaranteed timeline for dogs to master any of the training skills.

Dogs are very situational learners. This means that it will be very difficult for them to transfer the skills they learn here to their home or other environments without some training in the home. For the best experience and maximum skill retention for your dog, we strongly recommend that you pursue follow-up in-home training sessions with Erin, but this is not a requirement. This will also help you, the human, develop some skills along side your dog to continue to reinforce the behaviors that your dog is learning in your dailylife.

Our trainer is happy to make appointments on your schedule to continue training with your dog at a reduced rate. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you are interested in training in your home.
