Dog Training Services
Each dog is unique with their own strengths. Together we’ll use those strengths to make your pup into a polite and obedient member of the family. There are a few different ways we can do that.
Each class (puppy kindergarten, first grade, second grade, beginner obedience, and intermediate obedience) consists of a 60-minute class each week for four weeks.
Individual session
-
Initial Consultation
Dogs are just like people. They don’t like everyone all the time. This free 60-minute session gives us all a chance to meet, interact, and discuss expectations and desires from training. This is the best way to start. From here we’ll discuss if I’m the best fit for your needs and if so, what package below would work best for our time together.
-
Problem solving
This 60-minute session is great for focusing on topics that may need more attention. Barking, doorbell desensitization, jumping, etc.
-
Virtual alternative
Any of the problem-solving, puppy, or obedience classes can also be done virtually.
Please note: you are responsible for having the proper setup on your end (camera, high-speed internet connection, etc).
