 Initial Assessment in your Home 1.5 hours
Private lessons to focus on any bad manners or additional training in any category. We come to your home and assess what is going on and address how to manage and train the behaviors out. We can add structure to your routine, show you new activities and games for better interactions and stimulation along with reviewing all their poor habits. After our assessment typically we suggest either our two or four lesson package. This will cover most bad behaviors.
If you have a reactive, aggressive or newly adopted dog you will need to get a Behavioral Assessment done first INSTEAD of this Initial assessment.


​Behavioral Assessment - 2 hours
ANY ONE of the following behaviors:
Your dog is reactive on leash 
Your dog is reactive at guests
Your dog is reactive to other dog's
Your dog resource guards food/toys/you
Your dog got attacked at the dog park
New aggression with maturity
Fighting other animals/dogs in home
New rescue from the shelters, to help you get a better understanding of some of their past experiences. ​I am here to help identify some of the reasons these behaviors are happening and help you set up the best plan for rehabilitation.


Two or Four Lesson Package 55min each
After our assessment a package of two or four lessons in your home is our minimum recommendation. If your dog is very reactive, nervous or a young puppy without previously done training it likely will take us two more lessons to have everything polished. A few examples of behaviors we could work on: stay, eye contact, fetch, walking nicely on leash, greeting politely, leave it, drop it, loose leash walking, recall, placement, hold a down cue, emergency recall, how to let your dog greet other dogs while on leash properly and more.
Cancellation policy allows us to keep the rates where they are to combine visits in the same area. There will be a  ​50% charge on rescheduling any lesson if less than 3 business days are provided, no refunds under 24 hours.

​*No use of aversive tools will be tolerated. Also please note all lessons purchased using PayPal are final sale; no refunds.
