All training begins with an evaluation.  We will meet together, with your dog, to review your dog’s history and to identify your concerns and training goals.  This essential information will be used to determine a plan to address your needs and accomplish your objectives.

$100/Session

Following an initial consultation and the development of a training plan, we will begin training at  my facility where I will guide you in handling and working with your dog.  We will establish good habits and effective communication with your dog.   You will then regularly practice the concepts we cover prior to the next scheduled lesson.  Success in these lessons is greatly influenced by the owners’ commitment to practice and work with their dogs between lessons.

$200/Day of training:

• 3-1 Program:  3 consecutive days of training, 1 follow-up for owner & dog    

• 5-2 Program:  5 consecutive days of training, 2 follow-ups for owner & dog

• 10-4 Program:  10 consecutive days of training, 4 follow-ups for owner & dog

This program is designed to accelerate the training process and lay a solid foundation. Your dog will live and work with me for 3, 5 or 10 days where it will receive an immersive training experience.  The length of stay depends upon your goals, the dog’s needs, history, performance and prior training.  The advantage to Board & Train is that it provides many repetitions for your dog to learn new skills and takes the bulk of the work off of the owner. 

I will personally work with your dog and ensure it gets adequate numbers of repetitions to be successful.  Typically there will be 3-5 formal sessions throughout the day.  In addition we will practice manners and good behavior in real life situations such as during meals, on the way to the potty, while interacting with people, passing through doors, up & down stairs and around other animals.  The goal of this immersive process is to establish a clear communication system with the dog in order to facilitate its’ response to your leadership.

Upon completion of the Board and Train we will work together during Follow-Up lessons to ensure that you are comfortable with the skills and techniques necessary to maintain and expand upon the progress your dog has made.  The first Follow-Up Session will occur at the time of pick up and others to follow on a weekly basis.
