How to Get Started!

To begin, clients are required to bring their dog in for an evaluation at the training facility. This hour-long evaluation serves as a neutral ground to observe the dog’s true personality and allows owners to meet with a trainer one-on-one to discuss training plans tailored to their dog’s individual needs. The evaluation costs $50 and is particularly helpful for behavior modification cases, as it helps determine the level of a dog’s behavior issues such as aggression, anxiety, or nervousness. Evaluations can be scheduled online.
