Training Services for New and Current Clients

If your dog has one or two behavior challenges, a Single Super Session will help you right now. During this 90-minute online session, we’ll work together to bring relief to the issues you’re experiencing. We’ll also do a bit of hands-on training of helpful behaviors that are easy for you to teach and for your dog to learn.

A Single Super Session is also perfect for families planning to bring home a puppy or adult dog and want to get started on the right foot (and paw).

Follow-up includes information on:

• Gear recommendations
• House-training/chew training
• Safety strategies
• Managing nuisance behaviors
• Enrichment ideas
• Relevant resources and links
• Recommendations for further training

90-Minute Single Super Session: $225

Behavior Essentials is ideal for a new puppy or dog in the home or a way to brush up your adolescent dog’s manners. 

We cover the essentials for a well-mannered canine companion, with a training plan customized to a dog’s particular needs. We’ll discuss how dogs learn, how rewards-based training works, and everything a puppy or dog needs to have a happy, fulfilling life as a member of your family.

Training sessions include demonstrations and coaching you to work with your dog. After each session, I send follow up notes and a bit of homework, and provide email support between sessions. 

The entire family is welcome — and encouraged — to participate in training.

Six 60-minute sessions: $900

Includes 30 days of email support and exclusive lifetime access to my online resource library after the conclusion of our training sessions.

Many clients like to have a quick check-in before beginning a recommended training package.

For instance, I may have suggested you have a vet examine your dog, as sometimes behaviors are caused by a dog being in pain, or I may have recommended you talk to your vet about behavioral medication. 

We’ll check in about how things are going, celebrate your progress to date, and discuss next steps. 

30-Minute Check-In: $75

If we’ve done training sessions together within six months, you can book sessions as needed to further the goals we’ve discussed. To best meet your training goals, please book the number of sessions I have recommended.

We’ll check in about your sweet dog, cheer your progress to date, go over next training steps, re-calibrate goals if needed, and troubleshoot any problems. As always, I will demonstrate training and coach you as you work with your dog. Afterwards, I’ll send a follow-up, resources, some homework, and next steps.

60-minute Online Training Session: $150
