Private Lessons
Private lessons are for owners who want to be directly involved in the training process.We work with you and your dog one-on-one, either at our training location or in-home when appropriate. These sessions are customized around your dog’s behavior, your handling skills, and the real situations you deal with every day.This is a good option if you want guidance, homework, and a better understanding of how to communicate with your dog.
