Packages

Day Training Packages are perfect for:

  • ~ Busy professionals in search of a training package that empowers both dogs and humans

  • ~ Walk training and Reactivity training

  • ~ Basic obedience training and un-learning problem behaviors

  • ~ Training in your home, letting your dog learn where they are most comfortable

  • ~ Mid-day engagement for your dog, including a potty break and mental/physical exercise

Day Training is not a good fit for:

  • ~ Consistent management issues, like counter-surfing (book personal sessions instead)

  • ~ Separation anxiety  (I can set up a customized protocol and plan for these issues)

  • ~ Fear of or aggression toward strangers (I can set up a personalized plan for these issues)

  • ~ Dog-dog or dog-human tensions within the household (*Note: Day Training can work for this;

    I don’t offer a package for it. Let me know if you would like me to work out a custom package for you.)

The Process

  1. I create a customized plan based on your goals and lifestyle, as discussed in our initial 90-minute goal-setting session.

  2. I train your dog while you go about your life.

  3. I transfer the new behaviors to you at our weekly transfer sessions, and follow up after the program is over.

You know and love your dog well, but sometimes it is difficult to understand why they have such dramatic reactions to everyday events. Perhaps they are leash reactive and their lunging, barking, or growling on leash prevents others from seeing what a great dog they are. Maybe they have a hard time in the car, can’t settle at home, or tend to steal and destroy things. You are not alone! Our urban environment and close-set dwellings can bring out the worst in our dogs. The circumstances that our canine friends did not face for thousands of years (until we took them out of hunting and guarding roles and plopped them in our cozy homes) can be a challenge for even the sweetest of dogs.

Together, we can fine-tune our communication with your wild child, achieve peace at home, make walks a pleasure, and start enjoying time with our pups again. This highly personalized training program empowers you to face your dog’s unruly problems with confidence as we change the course of your relationship from fraught to fantastic.

Includes:

  • 90-minute initial consultation 

  • Twelve (12) in-person expert training sessions (3 sessions per week)

  • Four (4) in-person transfer sessions (1 session per week)

  • Two (2) 60-minute follow-up sessions after the first month

The severity of reactivity can vary from dog to dog. Most dogs improve in the time allotted for this package, while some need to take the training at a slower pace or require more time. I will extend the package discount for any additional sessions.

Separation anxiety and reactivity towards humans in the home are better suited to custom packages.
