Obeisance Training 1, 2 and 3
Obeisance training is about much more than just commands—it is about cultivating a deep language of mutual trust, clear communication, and harmonious partnership between you and your dog. Spanning three progressive levels, this journey transforms raw impulses into a cooperative relationship built on mutual respect. Level 1 gently introduces foundational focus and connection, Level 2 deepens your bond amidst the distractions of the world, and Level 3 establishes a profound, joyful off-leash reliability.
Typical Session Focus
Level 1: Awakening your dog's engagement through positive markers, name recognition, gentle leash guidance, and mindful introductory stays.
Level 2: Transitioning from treats to fluid hand signals, weaving in gentle environmental distractions, and nurturing calm, connected recalls.
Level 3: Proofing behaviors through shared trust in high-stimulus settings, offering safety-net emergency cues, and refining seamless off-leash teamwork.
Expected Outcomes
Level 1: Your dog tunes into your energy with joy, responding eagerly to their name and basic cues in a calm space.
Level 2: You move together in a relaxed, flowing rhythm on a loose leash, secure in your shared focus even when moderate distractions arise.
Level 3: Total off-leash freedom grounded in deep trust, where your canine companion responds instinctively and peacefully by your side anywhere you go.
