Customized Training Programs

The six-lesson package includes six 60-minute in-person sessions with a training plan and homework tailored to your goals. Lessons are generally scheduled every 1–2 weeks.

Many foundational goals can make significant progress within 6–12 weeks of consistent work. More complex behavior cases may take longer. Training interruptions can extend the timeline.

Virtual coaching helps you understand why your dog behaves the way they do and make meaningful changes within your everyday environment.

Four-session virtual packages must be scheduled within one month.

We combine three virtual lessons with three in-person lessons. Your consistency between sessions is one of the biggest factors in your dog’s success.

Board & Train stays have a two-week minimum. E-collar and off-leash programs require at least four weeks unless you have already completed a 1:1 Foundations Program.

Availability is limited. I typically take 1–3 dogs per program.

Owner instruction and follow-up transfer your dog’s training back to you. The goal is to help you understand how to maintain it, not simply send home a trained dog.

A non-refundable deposit reserves your dog’s place and is applied toward the total cost. The remaining balance is due upon completion of the program.

All costs, equipment recommendations, and additional services are discussed before implementation. There are no hidden fees.

Adventure Training builds on foundational training. Before full Adventure Days or off-leash adventures, your dog must be able to safely navigate those environments.

• Reliable recall and response to basic commands
• Ability to disengage from distractions
• Appropriate behavior around people and dogs
• Response to the handler at a distance
• Appropriate leash and long-line skills

Off-leash Adventure Training requires successful completion of an e-collar/off-leash training program.

A brief conversation to discuss your goals, answer initial questions, and determine whether we’re a good fit to work together.

Discuss your dog’s behavior, your goals, and your current routine. You’ll leave with an initial training direction and your first homework assignment.

Meet in your home or at a public location, depending on your dog and your goals. We’ll walk, talk, observe, and develop a plan based on what your dog needs.

We’ll also establish the first steps you can begin implementing immediately.
