Private in-home or online coaching sessions are a convenient way to fit dog training into your busy schedule.
Dogs are learning all the time so it’s essential everyone is consistent when it comes to training.
Sending your dog to “Board & Train” won’t guarantee behavior. Fido’s family is the most important part of the training program. People spending time with your dog have to practice all the things that pup has been taught. The importance of pup’s people can’t be overstated which is why their participation is a requirement of of our Dog School program.
But we understand that not everyone wants to spend their day training dogs. Thankfully that’s what we love to do! And we understand that busy households have demanding schedules. Private in-person or online training sessions mean you can book a training time that’s convenient for you.
How does private training work?
- Schedule a 75-minute initial consultation.
- During the first meeting, we get to know each other, establish your training objectives, design a workable training plan, and start some hands-on work with your pup.
- Follow-up sessions are booked according to your training goals.
- You and your dog will practice a few fun training games between sessions.
Dog training is like any skill – practice makes perfect and when you have a plan, it’s easy to incorporate into your existing schedule. And short frequent training sessions are best so you only need to commit a few minutes every day. Training an awesome companion doesn’t have to take a ton of time and it’s much easier than trying to fix problem behaviors.
Just like people, dogs are always learning. How far you want to take your dog’s formal education however is entirely up to you. While most behaviors can be taught fairly quickly, it will take longer for your dog to perform them reliably in a wide range of contexts. The more behaviors are practiced, the stronger they become.
