Private Training Pricing

This is an approximately 2hr visit that is an information sharing/gathering conversation. Through this conversation we will gather important details about your dog’s concerning behaviors and any other training need you wish to address.  We then use all of this information to create your custom training plan.  We will meet most of the dogs and start building a good relationship–for some behavioraal cases, we may opt to do the meet and greet with the dog the following visit once we have more information to plan for a successful first introduction. What students get:

• 2 hours of instruction and information gathering
• A folder full of applicable handouts, worksheets, instructional sheets, and more that we will go over and students can refer back to after we’ve left
• An understanding of their dog’s behavior and help identifying triggers or stressors
• A list of tools or management techniques that can help stabilize the situation immediately
• Management or safety plan to implement or changes to be made to improve the situation from the get go
• One or two pieces of training homework to get started with
• A broad overview of how we are going to help their dog learn better behaviors
• Students are welcomed and encouraged to take any notes during our consult that they feel will help them

Client Report For an additional $50 we can write up a detailed client report of what we talked about during the initial consultation.  We will write up the behavioral information we discussed regarding your dog, the management plan/training tools we talked about, and any other information we discussed in detail.
