Sessions include a written FOLLOW UP

Our GROUP CLASSES are offered Sunday and Wednesday year-round.

Pre-requisite - These are only available for Teams that I am working with in 1:1 training.

Group classes are great for working with your dog around other well managed distractions, while building maturing skills, Team focus on both ends of the leash, and meeting other Teams who are working as hard as you are.

For every 1 hour class - it takes 4 hours of work during the week practicing to advance your skills.

Some classes will have a written FOLLOW UP but not all.

1:1 IN-PERSON AT OUR FARM

A One-on-One personalized session. You choose the skill/s you would like to work on, and I will demonstrate the process with your dog, and then coach you. This way you can take your new skills and practice away! Whether you want to learn something new, start modifying a behavior, learn a new skill, and / or better management techniques, this is a great way to focus on what is important to your household. Teaching and training are a process, there is no such thing as an over night success. We are an integrative and functional training business, using reward based training for the whole dog - socially, emotionally, physically, and nutritionally.

Sessions do not include a written FOLLOW UP

PHONE -  If your schedule isn't super flexible, you live far away, or it is just easier to chat over the phone to get the information you need - phone appointments are a great option.
Phone appointments are scheduled in HALF HOUR time slots, make sure you book the amount of time you would like, for the information you are looking to gain.
These appointments are super productive if you have a list of questions already written down, and are ready to take notes. 

Sessions do not include a written FOLLOW UP 

E-MAIL - Great way to check-in, gather resources, clarify your training plan, answer questions. Each session comes with one e-mail response, and a second e-mail if something needs clarification.

IN-PERSON AT OUR FARM -

If there is something that prohibits working/training with your puppy / dog at the time of service (health, behavior, arousal, environment) - the appointment will be cancelled in the first 15 minutes, and only a $45 service charge will apply.

Our Behavioral Consultation is designed to work with the dog and owner in a one-on-one environment. Consultations are a great way to address your dogs needs and/or your concerns.

I take a thorough history before the initial appointment. Your attention to supplying accurate details is important. 

Time is spent observing your dog, your way of interacting, and your dog responding. Depending on the context of the appointment, sometimes we will work with your dog, but it isn't always necessary and/or appropriate.

The consultation is just that, to give you a better understanding on what is happening and information on the initial work that will need to be done. 

These consultations are great for those that want to learn more about their dog, in a more in-depth way.

Aggression cases that have gone unchecked for a period of time will run longer as the history is important. Please plan accordingly. It is important that you not only receive the information you need, but that you understand the initial plan for you and your dog. After the initial consultation, if there is a need for follow up appointments they will be schedule as a 1 hour follow up.

Behavioral Consultation includes a written FOLLOW UP.
