In Home Private Training Available
Laura will start with a 1 hour consultation including an evaluation of your dog to create a personalized training program based on your needs. Each Session after that will be 1 hour covering a few commands/topics with each session.
Once your dog is able to perform commands or behaviors with at least 80% reliability rate in your home, we will then “proof” your dog by working with various controlled and uncontrolled distractions (People, Animals, Cars/Traffic etc.) in several environments. This ensures your dog will be able to perform a behavior no matter what situation arises and is key to creating a confident and well mannered dog.
Please note certain behaviors are age and development dependant. Our expectations of the capability and attention span for a 10 week old puppy will be different than that of a 6-10 month old, and 18 month to 2 year adolescent dog.
