Private Training
 

Private Training
is customized training at your home and the places you like to go with your dog. This is an affordable combination of highly scientific behavior modification and down to earth, practical training skills.

Most of our clients prefer this way of working with their dog. We like this format because we get to know you and your dog in everyday settings as individuals and that helps us help you achieve goals faster and better.

We focus on

  • building the bond of friendship between your dog and you
  • developing real life, practical skills and routines to help your dog control its behavior
  • teaching you how to deal with events that upset your dog and trigger unwanted behaviors
  • analyzing and solving behavior problems
  • giving you a thorough understanding of what caused any behavior problems

In a private session setting, we quickly chose targeted techniques best suited for your personality and your dog's temperament and trainability.

Specifically targeting your goals creates faster progress and allows us to address issues you may be inhibited from addressing in a group setting. It gives you the best opportunity to understand and influence your dog very thoroughly.

Costs:

  • Private training has a base cost per hour plus a travel surcharge if you are more than 10 miles from our headquarters.
  • You can pay by the single session or pre-purchase a package of sessions and get a discount. We encourage this mode by discouting because, although some problems can be solved with only one consultation, most owners and dogs require a short series of sessions that require commitment to the project.
  • We accept checks, cash and offer a convenient credit and debit card option through PayPal.
  • Talk to us about current rates, travel distances and discount programs.

Call today for your free phone evaluation! Let us help you decide what direction to take in changing your dog's behavior. We truly want to help because we have found that, between the over abundance of internet "experts" and the helpful advice of friends, most dog owners are very misinformed adn confused about how to interpret and what to do to change their dog's undesireable behaviors.

An in-home consultation is a base rate of $90.00 for the first hour (with a one hour minimum) and $20 for every additional 15 minute segment during the same visit.

High gas prices, long distances and increasing traffic congestion have forced us to add a travel surcharge when you are more than 30 miles round trip away from our home office. The surcharge is currently $0.50 per mile on a round trip basis for any additional miles over the 30 miles round trip included with the base price. You can also use PayPal to prepay your consultation.

Some consultations require only one visit. Others require multiple visits to work through training or behavior mofification protocols. To reward our clients for making a commitment to sticking with a program for change for their dog, we offer some package discounts from 7% to 10%. Ask how you can qualify.

There is a 3.1% Handling charge added to Invoice total for invoices paid online.

We accept the following credit cards
