Obedience Training Package – Private Lessons

Obedience Training Package is designed to help your dog master essential commands and improve their overall behavior through personalized, one-on-one lessons. Whether you're dealing with obedience issues or simply want your dog to become a well-behaved companion, this comprehensive program will give you the tools you need for success.

How It Works?

• Evaluation Lesson: I start with a thorough evaluation of your dog to understand their specific needs and triggers. This 1-hour session costs $110 and helps me create a customized training plan for your dog.
• Private Lessons: After the evaluation, you'll have the option to enroll in my training program. Each lesson is 1 hour long, held once per week, and costs $150 per session. After each lesson, you'll receive homework to ensure continued progress between sessions.

Training Package Options

• Package Deal: The complete program price is $1000. It includes 6 one-on-one lessons plus 4 hours of social training.
• Pay-As-You-Go: If you prefer to pay for lessons individually, the total package cost is $1100. Please note, the evaluation lesson is not included in these prices.

What’s Included?

• Command Training: Your dog will learn essential commands like sit, down, come, heel, stop, wait, the marker word “yes,” and "up." Each command is paired with a unique gesture, allowing you to communicate with your dog using hand signals instead of voice commands.
• Behavior Correction: I’ll help address any behavioral issues your dog may have, including leash control and reactivity.
• Social Training: The package includes 4 hours of social training, where I personally pick up your dog, take them to a stimulating environment for socialization, and drop them back off at your home. If needed separately, the cost of standalone social training is $200. I recommend at least one session for well-rounded social skills.

What's Included?

1. Behavior Correction: Address and correct unwanted behaviors such as jumping, barking, chewing, and pulling on the leash.

6. No E-Collars or Prong Collars: I do not use e-collars or prong collars in my training. My methods are based on positive reinforcement and humane techniques.

Important Notes

1. Duration and Expectations: While the 2-week program provides a strong foundation for training, it is a short period of time to perfect all commands. Consistency and continued practice at home are essential for maintaining and improving your dog's skills. Therefore, I cannot guarantee perfection in this short timeframe, but I will ensure your dog has a solid base to build upon.
2. Owner Updates: You will receive regular pictures and videos of your dog during their stay to keep you updated on their progress.
3. Follow-Up Support: A 1.5-hour follow-up session after the program to ensure a smooth transition and provide additional support to reinforce training at home, plus PDF files for reference.
