Training for All Ages
-
8 weeks old or 12 years old, we can help train him!
-
By seven weeks of age puppies are well developed mentally and can function at nearly an adult level. We can take advantage of this and start training as early as possible!
-
As long as your senior dog is still physically and mentally capable of performing the behaviors you want, we can make training successful!
How In-Home Training Works:
-
Contact me. We discuss the issues you are having, where you live, and when is a good time to meet each other.
-
Next, meet with the trainer for about 1.5 hours. We discuss the dog's behavioral history, your goals, go over training basics, develop a management plan and our next course of action.
-
We typically proceed with 5-8, one hour weekly sessions, building behaviors in relation with your goals!
