All of our training programs take place at our Temple location. These unique programs have been developed with the following things in mind:
1) The average pet owner wants reliable training that is easy to follow and maintain
2) The ultimate goal of training is peace of mind that your dog is safe and enjoyable in any setting
3) The handful of extremely useful commands we teach are 100% reliable when your dog goes home from training
Each of our training programs has been developed and refined over the last 20 years that we have been providing exceptional care and service for dogs and their owners. The focus of each of our programs is to give you a companion that you can enjoy 24 hours a day, not just when you are doing basic obedience in a training class once a week.
Each program includes obedience training, of course, but it is well-balanced with playtime, socialization, manners and daily structure and routine. This pays off in spades when you get your dog back home and they are now settled and, even more importantly, safe – for both them and the people around them.

28 Day Puppy Primer & Puppy Camp
Our 28 Day Puppy Primer program is to give young puppies a head start to a great life with their families. We focus on socialization and manners with age-appropriate formal obedience built in.
Your puppy will learn crate training, socialization, manners and leash obedience. This program is good for people who find they are struggling with their puppy or who would like their puppy to have a good head start on life and training. It’s also great to address early behavior problems, like nipping and mouthing, that can turn into bigger problems later. Finally, it’s ideal for people with busy work and life schedules who are having a hard time keeping their puppy on a schedule and getting it the exercise it needs.
We recommend this program for puppies 4-5 months of age or younger. We typically only recommend it where you are having difficulty with your puppy and can’t wait until it is about 6 months old to enter our off-leash program.
The cost of this program is $1249 for 28 days or $379 per week. Please email mydog@i-wag.com so we can help you decide which will length of time is needed for your puppy!
