Not sure what program is right for you? Want to learn more about Crafty Canine Club and tips to train your dog? Come in for a free behavior assessment and we'll create a custom plan for your dog!
A behavior assessment is a 25-minute evaluation that test your dog’s ability in common scenarios. We use this assessment to discuss different behaviors your dog may have, as well as test your dog’s skills! Each behavior assessment contains 5 scenarios that are graded on a scale of 1 to 3, based on the ability to handle each different scenario
Greeting a Stranger: This examines how your dog greets other humans in behavior and demeanor. We use this to pinpoint any positive or negatives your dog may exhibit during the scenario.
Greeting a Dog: This examines how your dog is able to socialize with other dogs in a safe environment. We evaluate how your dog can greet another dog on and off-leash to get a full picture of any issues occurring with socialization
Basic Obedience: This scenario is made for owners to showcase their dog’s basic obedience ability. You will lead your dog through basic commands and we will observe!
Loose Leash Walking: Owners control their dogs for a simple loose leash walk around the facility. The goal is to not have your dog go in front of you or pulling you at any time during the walk.
Monitored Separation: Dogs are left alone or with another staff member for 5 minutes, to test their ability to cope without being around who they love most. This allows us to see if any pressing separation anxiety issues are present right away.
A dog who scored a 5 to 8 on the assessment is considered a beginner. This dog may be lacking in three or more areas of the test, but has plenty of room to improve its skills!
A dog who scored a 9 to 12 on the assessment is considered intermediate. This dog may be lacking in only one or two skills, making it a great Club Board & Train candidate!
A dog who scored a 13 to 14 on the assessment is considered advanced. This dog may be only lacking in one skill, and is a great candidate for Club Boarding!
A dog that scored a perfect 15 on the test is considered an expert! Every dog that reaches this rank at Crafty Canine Club gets a free AKC Good Citizen Class.
This is to help evaluate a starting point for your dog. Having a great starting point allow us to watch and track their growth as they improve over time at The Club. In addition, the behavior assessment ensures we meet every dog that comes to the Club. This way, there are never any dogs visiting that we have not personally met and assessed. It allows us to create a safer environment for ever dog and owner visiting. If you are interested in a behavior assessment, please fill out the form below:
