The 4C’s of dog training.
  • Compassion – understanding your dog’s responses to training feedback.
  • Clarity – learning how you can communicate more effectively
  • Control – managing the environment to ensure training has the desired outcome.
  • Consistency – delivering timely and appropriate feedback.
Learn to train your dog yourself!

One-on-one training sessions customized to focus on you and your dog’s specific needs.

Learn in one lesson what some trainers take weeks or even months to teach.

The initial lesson is 90 minutes and additional lessons are 60 minutes.

Starting from $180 at my place, and $220 at your home.

Private Lessons are focused on teaching YOU to train your dog. With my expert hands-on guidance, you will learn what works for your dog in terms of strategies, tools, and rewards. Find out what you’re doing wrong, doing well and could be doing better.

All clients start with a 90 minute initial lesson that dives right into training. For many families this will be the only lesson needed to get things under control. If needed, additional lessons are 1 hour each. By the time you’ve finished your Private Lessons, some examples of things you can expect your dog to do are:

Have good manners in all social situations with people and other animals.

  • Come without hesitation every time you call.
  • Walk calmly on a loose leash through a crowd of people.
  • Automatically stop at all streets for permission before crossing.
  • Wait for permission before exiting the front door of your house.
  • Private Lesson Rates at my place:

5 lesson package: $595… includes unlimited follow-up help for the lifetime of your dog.
