Program Elements
IN-HOME EVALUATION
Before we accept a dog for training, we do an in-home evaluation to assess what program is best suited for you and your pet. The evaluation runs approximately an hour, costs $50 and is done in the home environment of the dog and owner. If a program is purchased the day of the evaluation, the evaluation fee is included. When the evaluation is complete, we will give you a fixed-cost for a program, and explain what your involvement will be as well as ours. We are equipped to enroll you in a program immediately. Since we are a service that is personalized, and in YOUR home, we try our best to schedule appointments during times most convenient for you.
OBEDIENCE
Obedience is not something your pet is inherently born with, it needs to be developed.
HOUSE BREAKING
Having a pet can be the best experience in the world, unless your pet is not housebroken.
PROBLEM SOLVING
Owning a pet can be fun, but there is little joy in having to replace chewed furniture, torn carpet, or even worse, your favorite pair of shoes.
BABY PROOFING
Did you know that Southland also provides training programs for baby proofing?
POOL SAFETY
Pools are popular in the state of Florida, and most likely with your dog too. 
PUPPY KINDERGARTEN
The sooner you train your dog, the fewer problems you and your pet will have in the future.
The security and confidence that a well-trained dog can provide an owner is irreplaceable, but dog owners hesitate because of the myths and misconceptions surrounding protection dogs.
