At your house. Eventually, we may move to a park or other location, but we start training where they are the most comfortable and able to learn.

I use positive reinforcement training. This means using treats primarily to reward your dog for what we want them to do. We also use treats as a lure to help get your dog to do the cue initially.

I do not use any corrections, punishment, or training collars.

We break down those triggers into smaller portions and use counterconditioning and desensitization to help them learn that this hard thing is not scary anymore. We do this from a safe distance and can move closer as we progress.

We analyze what is going on: are there too many distractions, are we asking something too hard, etc. and then reset with any adjustments needed and try again.

Training sessions are an hour long, once a week. Each training session starts at $90 and can go up from there depending on where you are located. The cost includes post-session notes, homework, and resources.
