For dogs who need more than the basics

The Pongo package is designed for dogs with some training who need stronger obedience and everyday manners. It includes the relevant foundations from Fido, plus work tailored to your dog’s next goals.

  • On-leash and off-leash skills

  • Recall with distractions and place training

  • Over-excitability and non-aggressive reactivity

  • Greeting people and other dogs more appropriately

  • Introducing a new dog into the family

  • Separation concerns and grooming reactivity

Practice where the behavior happens

Private sessions help you apply the training in your home and, where appropriate, in public. Ben explains what to practice between sessions so the skills become part of your daily routine. Pongo includes unlimited private at-home sessions. Guaranteed results depend on your participation and completion of the homework in our package terms.

Which package fits your dog?

If your dog is new to training, explore puppy foundations. If fear, aggression, or resource guarding is the main concern, ask about Balto. Ben can help you choose based on your dog’s history and goals.
