Training Packages

The amount of sessions you should purchase varies based on how far you’d like to take your dog in training and how much time you have to practice. The more sessions we have to work with, the further we can take you, but no matter which package you choose, we’ll make the most out of every session we have together. You will also always have the option to add additional sessions later.

Consult + 1:
Not sure if you want to purchase a full package? You can begin with the Consult and follow-up session to get a feel for what training with us is like. You’ll still be able to continue with individual sessions or jump into a package after that.
Private training consultation
All training starts with a 90-minute training consultation where your trainer will get to know you, your dog, your training goals, and get you started with hands-on training. During this consultation, your trainer will:
- Take an in-depth history
- Identify the root cause of your dog’s behavior
- Help you better understand your dog and their behavior
- Work with you to create a plan that addresses your dog’s individual needs and goals
- Begin hands-on training, focusing on key foundation behaviors that will lay the groundwork for success in training and begin to address your primary goals
- Clearly outline your dog’s training roadmap so you have a solid understanding of where your dog is, where they’re going, and what steps you’ll take to progress and stay on track as you work together in training
- Finally, we’ll email you your customized training and behavior plan after your session, which will include a recap of what you worked on, your written homework to track progress, and your training roadmap and plan so you can review at any time.
Ongoing training sessions
Ongoing training sessions provide you with hands-on, individualized support as you work through your training plan. In these sessions, we’ll continue to build on and skyrocket your training skills, make sure you and your dog stay on track, and will help you stay ahead of or prevent any potential challenges.
