🏡 Community Living Insight
Training tailored for Mount Pleasant’s family neighborhoods, busy parks, and waterfront hangouts.
From calm walks in Old Village to relaxed afternoons at Shem Creek, our training fits the Mount Pleasant lifestyle.
During the first two weeks, your dog settles into our structured routine while we assess their personality, learning style, and specific behavioral challenges. We establish foundation commands and begin addressing priority issues that matter most to Johns Island families — from house manners to impulse control in wide-open spaces.
Week-by-Week Progress:
Initial assessment and personalized training plan
Foundation command installation (sit, place, down, come)
Basic house manners: calm entrances, leash walking, crate comfort
Reactivity trigger identification (wildlife, other dogs, or farm animals)
Daily routine establishment for confidence and stress reduction
Once the foundation is solid, we move into advanced skills. Training expands into real-world Johns Island environments — from large yards to dog-friendly community spaces like Angel Oak Park or the Farmers Market. We focus on off-leash reliability and calm behavior in the same settings your dog will encounter every day.
Advanced Development:
Off-leash reliability in distracting outdoor environments
Complex behavioral modification (e.g., chasing deer, over-guarding)
Real-world scenario practice: farms, markets, and social settings
Transfer session preparation for lasting results at home
Home environment simulation tailored to Johns Island lifestyles
