Day Training

Wouldn't it be great if someone could train your dog while you go about your daily business?  That's exactly what I do when you sign up for Day Training!  I'll come to your home to train your dog while you are at work, mowing the lawn or taking a nap.  Day Training packages are customizable to your dog's needs.  During your initial consult we will determine the approximate length of program needed to meet your dog training goals.      

Initial Consult:  $100
Weekly Day Training Fee:  $400

Board & Train

For those who don't have the time, patience or inclination to train their dog, we can do the hardest work for you!  Your dog will live at the trainer's fully fenced acreage with five other friendly dogs and four cats.  Only two Board & Train clients are allowed at a time, so your dog will get constant attention and training.  Our Board & Train service is ONLY for puppy training and basics manners.  Dogs must be animal friendly to participate!

You will recieve a one-hour private training session when you pick up your dog and a one hour follow-up session two weeks later.

Board & Train includes house training and basic manners including sit, down, stand, stay, loose leash walking, leave it and polite greeting.

     Two Week Session:  $1000
One Month Session:  $2000
