How It Works
We come to your dog's familiar environment or practice area (typically weekly or biweekly for 60 minutes) and work directly with you on applicable exercises and discuss management and handling techniques with you.
You continue the work we started in sessions and develop those skills and management strategies until the next session. Each session build on the last at your pace, based on your needs according to the training plan discussed with you during your consultation.
Between lessons, we are available for call, email, and text support at no additional cost. Private Lessons include reference sheets and materials applicable to your case.
