Now. Now is the best time to get started. Puppies can (and do) begin training from the moment they are brought home, even as young as 7 or 8 weeks. Young puppies’ brains are sponges for training, learning new manners and skills. Starting young also means avoiding a number of problem behaviors, rather than treating them after they’ve started
Your trainer will try their best to keep costs down by utilizing equipment you already own whenever possible. It is possible you may need to purchase additional equipment based on your individual case. Optional purchase suggestions will be made to you throughout your Training Plan
That depends on the current state of your dog’s training, your goals, and the amount of time and effort you put into training. Each Custom Training Plan is designed to provide you with as much information, and as many tools as possible so you can handle your dog’s training upon completion.
Absolutely! Reactivity is one of the most common behavior problems facing dogs of all breeds. Your trainer will do their best to work with you towards the goal of eliminating or reducing reactive behaviors as much as possible
Absolutely! We encourage the whole family to be present during class. Your trainer will teach your children the importance of interacting with your dog in a healthy and safe manner. Kids also get to learn some fun games to play that can be beneficial to your training
We practice the LIMA (least invasive minimally aversive) approach to dog training. Any equipment used will be dependent on you and your dog, and your goals. These include but are not limited to:
The cost of training multiple dogs depends on what your training goals are for each dog and is done on a case by case basis. Please give us a call at 260-418-7908
Any client who has completed our 6 Session Training Plan is eligible for additional training as they desire. Amount and length of additional training sessions will vary depending on your needs
Good Question! There are a number of factors involved. Some other -in-home trainers have a training facility. Even though you aren’t using it, you are still paying for it. We don’t spend lots of money on advertising, further saving you money. We feel our work and reviews speak for themselves. Furthermore, we firmly believe that dog training should be something that is obtainable for everyone, not just the super wealthy.
