Private Dog Training

Private training begins with filling out this behavior intake form. Once received, our first session may be scheduled. During this initial working session, we observe your dog, discuss your dog's behavior including your goals, demonstrate training and behavior modification techniques specific to your and your dog’s needs, plus coach you while we watch you train your dog. Using reward-based, force-free training, we'll work together to create a more perfect union between you and your dog.

Private Dog Training is Ideal for:

• flexibility in scheduling

• reactive, fearful, or aggressive dogs, and dogs who resource guard - It’s Complicated Package

• separation anxiety - Initial or Maintenance Separation Anxiety Package

• new puppies or newly adopted dogs - Welcome Home Package

• dogs recovering from surgery or with other medical concerns

• families with young children

• homes with multiple dogs and other pets such as cats

• various training goals, from basic manners to more severe behavior issues

All private training sessions include a training plan summary with the skills introduced and tailored to your dog's needs, your lifestyle, and your goals. Between sessions, we're available for support via email, text, or phone calls as you and your dog progress. 

I'm fully vaccinated/boosted and offering hybrid lessons. Here's why: I speak dog and dogs know it. When I'm in the room, most dogs prefer to work with me rather than their own people. I'm a certified professional trainer, so my observation, timing, criteria, and rate of reinforcement are better than your training skills. Just like you're way better at your job than I could ever be! By starting online, YOU are the most interesting person to your dog. Your dog needs to bond with you, not me. If your dog has aggression issues, starting online gives you a jumpstart to practice necessary skills before we train in-person. Since offering hybrid lessons, dogs have a MUCH better bond with their people than when I taught all sessions in-person. Contact us now to discuss your specific needs and schedule an appointment.

Your package is meant to set you and your dog up for success. In order to do that, we must meet on a regular basis. I understand that life gets hectic at times! You will have 5 months to COMPLETE your training package. Packages not completed within 5 months will forfeit payment and remaining sessions.

behavior anywhere - WHere Dog and cat behavior Questions are Answered

If you’re not sure which training package is right for you and/or you have preliminary questions about your dog’s/cat’s behavior or training, book an initial tele-training session with one of our certified trainers.  After learning more about you and your dog or cat through​​ this ​behavior intake form, ​you’ll receive the scheduling and payment links.

Behavior Anywhere tele-training sessions are a half hour and include a personalized discussion about your dog or cat. I will demonstrate pertinent training skills with my own dog or cat, and coach you as I watch you practice with your dog or cat. I will also answer your questions and give you information about canine/feline well-being and stress mitigation.  After our tele-training session, I will email you a training report reflecting what we discussed, including written instructions for the training skills demonstrated. All of this for $90. Length of sessions ​and prices may vary based on severity of problem. Contact us now to discuss your specific needs and schedule an appointment.
