DAY TRAINS

Day Train is a “drop-off and train” program where your dog works directly with a Ruff Patriots trainer for a minimum of 4 hours. This gives us enough time to do meaningful reps, build consistency, and work through distractions—without rushing your dog or cutting corners.
Day Trains build momentum, but owner follow‑through is what makes it last.
Basic Obedience
Minimum 4 Hours | Obedience, manners, and real‑life reliability

Basic Day Train is a drop‑off training option where your dog works directly with a Ruff Patriots trainer for a minimum of 4 hours. This is long enough to get meaningful reps, build consistency, and create real progress—without rushing your dog.
Training is customized to your goals and your dog’s current level.
Common focuses include:
-
Loose‑leash walking (reduced pulling)
-
Engagement and focus around distractions
-
Sit, down, place/settle
-
Stay foundations (duration + mild distractions)
-
Polite greetings (no jumping)
-
Impulse control (leave it, door manners, food manners)
-
Calm “off‑switch” routines for the home
What’s included:
-
Trainer-led training blocks with built‑in rest breaks (dogs learn better with recovery)
-
Real‑world practice as appropriate (safe, controlled environments)
-
A handoff at pickup so you know what we trained and how to maintain it
-
Clear homework so progress transfers to you
