Wayfinder Tale
3-week Lodge & Learn - $3299
Service Description
The Wayfinder Tale is a 3-Week Lodge & Learn designed for dogs who need more than manners, they need some guidance, reassurance, and time. This three-week immersive program expands upon foundational learning while introducing focus and emotional recovery skills in real-world conditions. It’s ideal for dogs who struggle with distractions, frustration, uncertainty, or difficulty transitioning from training to life. Each day we build the bridge between structure and freedom, strengthening recall, refining leash skills, and practicing calm focus in changing environments. Dogs learn to check in instead of check out, to manage arousal instead of spiraling, and to trust their handler’s cues even when the world feels big and loud. Through thoughtful exposure, pattern games, enrichment walks, and reinforcement-based training, we help them rediscover confidence and curiosity without losing self-control. The Wayfinder Tale is about helping your dog navigate life’s challenges with a steadier compass, guided by trust, patience, and a shared sense of direction. Best suited for: Adolescent or adult dogs needing help with impulse control, confidence, and focus around distractions. Includes: Consultation & individualized training plan Structured daily training, decompression walks, and enrichment Focus on recall, focus under distraction, and arousal recovery Photo/video progress updates Private go-home session with long-term transfer plan
