We require proof of current vaccinations before all consults, training sessions, or classes with each dog.
 **We require a $50 non-refundable deposit to hold your place in the Basic and Intermediate Courses. If you enroll two dogs, we require one dog's full tuition. This will be applied to the total cost of the class. We accept mailed checks or you may set up a time to drop off cash if you prefer.**
All Obedience Classes: $150 /6 weeks
Small classes, 4-5 dogs only. Personal 1 on 1 attention to everyone!
Basic:
 Your pet learns 23 commands! And you still get individual attention, unlike most group classes!
You will also learn basic body language skills, to help you prevent problems later on.
 Intermediate:
This class teaches 17 skills and it includes some off lead work. This is more of an intermediate/advanced class.
All our Basic grads can move right up! By the end of this class, your dog will be able to perform  an off lead, out of sight, down stay in line with their class mates.
Advanced:
Everything you need to pass a Canine Good Citizens Test!
We take the test apart, step by step to help you pass! We also throw in high distractions that help in everyday scenarios as well as passing the test!  

Private Sessions
We come to you, and work 1 on 1 with you and your dog in your home.
For dogs with aggression or behavior issues, we set up an initial consultation to evaluate your dog's body language and get a full history on your dog. This appointment lasts 30-45 minutes and helps us make an accurate plan of action for you and your dog. The initial consultation is free depending on your location. (Please note there is no training done on initial consult. Again this is for us to gather information for the best plan of action to help your dog on its path to rehabilitation.)
Each Session after consult is 
$75: 1 dog
$125: 2 dogs
   $175: 3 or more dogs
**I do not charge you extra if I am there more then an hour!**

Private Sessions at our location
This option is to help you save money. You get 1 on 1 personal attention at our location.
Each session is $50 for one dog and lasts about an hour.

Our goal is to make you and your pet live happy together, too many people give up their pets thinking there is no hope.
Every Dog can be a "good" dog!

Behavior & Aggression Assessments
I conduct a combination of the ASPCA's S.A.F.E.R. test and Assess-a-pet test, to evaluate your dog. Whether you are a landlord feeling bad about not accepting certain breeds, or a tenant wanting to document that your dog truly is a well behaved dog for your landlord. 
Appointments are needed and the cost is $30.
I will give you a copy of your dog's results with an explanation of each test performed.

This is the test shelters use to deem a dog adoptable, it tests for food/resource guarding, touch sensitivity, dog-dog aggression, visual/sound sensitivity.

(This test can not be used to foresee separation anxiety/housebreaking issues.)
