There is a $50 fee for booking a consultation. This is to hold your spot and account for my time. However, if you choose to sign up for a package within 48 hours of your consult the fee will go towards your package price!

I do not have a limit on how far I travel for my clients. However, there is a travel charge for each mile outside of a 5 mile radius around my home. The fee starts at $2 per mile but may vary depending on actual drive time.

All of my packages include a professional grade treat pouch. Most, if not all, of my training includes the use of food rewards. Over the years, I have found that a good treat pouch helps make using food rewards that much easier for my clients. Cheaper pouches make grabbing rewards difficult and therefore people are less likely to use them. By including a high quality treat pouch I take the guess work out for my clients and set them on the path for success!

While I will sometimes use corrections in my programs they are not typically a first resort. I prefer to teach dogs what I want of them using positive rewards and motivational methods. However, once the dog has a good understanding and can confidently perform the behaviors I am looking for I may introduce simple corrections. The corrections I typically use are verbal correction, spatial pressure, and leash pressure. If you would like further information on how I incorporate corrections into my training process, please feel free to reach out.

I do not offer the option of purchasing lessons one at a time. My priority is helping to set you and your dog up for success. I have found that the single lessons are not in line with achieving this goal with my clients. In order to have a better chance of achieving your goals, multiple lessons are necessary.

I made the decision to not open the membership program to new clients due to the nature of the program. The amount of lessons provided each month are great for keeping up on training or increasing the challenge, but not the best option for clients just getting started in their training journey. Also by limiting the membership program to past and current clients it allows me to have a good understanding of you and your dog. This will ensure that I can structure group outings in a way that sets everyone up for success.
