Group Classes
1-hour sessions once a week
Our group training is held at Lucky Dog and Out and About, depending on the level of the class. We offer classes for puppies, basic manners, intermediate manners, and advanced manners. Each week, we work on new skills and build upon what we have previously learned. Every class includes an outdoor portion where we apply what we have learned to the real world. These are smaller group classes, with a maximum of six dogs.
Private Training
1 hour $100
Half hour $50
Private training can be held wherever it is most helpful: at clients' homes, our Lucky Dog location, or out and about. Private lessons can be beneficial for anyone struggling with a particular skill or behavior. They are especially helpful for people who need more attention than group classes can provide. You will receive a customized training plan for the skills we are trying to improve.
*A travel fee may be required if you are located more than 15 minutes away from Stonington CT
Play & Learn
Daily sessions $80
Are you looking for extra help in training your puppy or older dog? Drop them off for a day of training with our certified trainers. The focus will be on teaching training cues, socialization, exposure, and conditioning. Give your dog a head start and set them up for success!
Each group is limited to five dogs or puppies. Puppies under six months have a specific group, and dogs older than six months have their own group. Each session includes dogs that have compatible play styles, sizes, and ages. During the session, dogs receive one-on-one training time while the others learn to settle either on a bed or in a crate. This is a great way to continue working on training while providing exposure to distractions and controlled small group playtime.
If interested, please fill out an application. We offer play and learn Monday - Thursday. Once we have received your application, we will be in touch to get your dog into the appropriate group.
Hydrotherapy
One Session $55
6 Pack $300
Hydrotherapy, or water therapy, involves using water for therapeutic purposes to improve health. Exercising in water provides buoyancy and resistance, allowing for muscle strengthening and conditioning without stress on joints. Bathing in hot water can dilate blood vessels, relax joints and muscles, and aid in healing injuries. For active dogs and other highly active breeds, recreational hydrotherapy can improve stamina, endurance, muscle strength, and athletic performance, and help prevent muscle strain and injuries.
Hydrotherapy sessions are set for thirty minutes, with the goal of having your dog work on the treadmill for twenty minutes. We may have to gradually increase this duration until we reach twenty minutes as your dog becomes more comfortable with the treadmill.
Benefits of hydrotherapy include:
Weight loss
Gentle on joints
Improved cardiovascular health
Increased muscle mass
Pain relief
Significant advantages for senior dogs
