Our first visit will be to evaluate the dog and its surrounding appropriately. We will discuss some of the problems you may have with your dog and how they could be solved, we will look at potential problem areas and will try to explain why and how they possibly were created.
We then design a custom training plan for you and your dog with realistic goals. Only if you are willing to invest time and energy and to stay positive throughout training, the one-on-one sessions will be successful. Clear, consistent commands will ensure your dog has a clear understanding what's expected of him or her.
Obedience training for your dog will not relinquish the owners responsibility to maintain and upkeep the training. Just like a vehicle that needs engine tuning, oil changes, new tires etc., your dog also requires consistent interaction and training. Realistic goals for you and your dog are common sense.
If you are interested in getting the training alongside your dog and you are willing and committing to daily exercises with your dog, the one-on-one sessions might be preferred over the board and train. Success will greatly depend on the owner's willingness to follow the suggestions of the trainer and his or hers ability to stay consistent and committed through out.
Our first private 60 min session is $70 and is held here at our location in Inman. We then offer a personalized training program:
- 4 session (6 weeks to complete) $260 ; sessions are usually scheduled on the same day and time over six weeks.
Each session will build upon the previous one, so doing the assigned homework/practice between each session is important to not waste time. We also offer off-site training session in real life setting such as downtown Inman, Landrum, stores, etc. for an additional fee.
House calls are available within a reasonable distance starting at $100.
