The program is 3 one and a half training sessions, 2 to 3 weeks apart. No client requests more. We are able to cover all basics CUSTOMIZED TO YOUR DOG AS WELL AS BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION FOR FEAR AND ANXIETY.
Total cost is ONLY $425.
BEING POLITE
Greet visitors politely without jumping on them or barking at the doorbell. Wait by the door instead of bolting through. No biting even when playing. Leave It and Come are great exercises that can save your dog's life. Of course, we can cover sits and downs, if the dog does know them.
BUILD PATIENCE
Lie down on the cot and wait patiently during the family dinner instead of begging. Short sit-stay to allow people and dogs walk by. Take treats politely instead of biting hands. Sit when asking for attention or being petted.
GOING INTO PUBLIC
It is critical to teach your dog how to function in public. We will teach your dog to walk on a loose leash while passing by other dogs and people calmly. We will master how to meet strangers politely.
SOCIALIZATION
Socialization is not just for puppies. It is an ongoing process. We need to make sure that your dog continues being comfortable in different environments, situations, crowds, and around children playgrounds..
BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION
I am on a sabbatical from working with aggressive dogs. I still help fearful and anxious canines. I will show you how to build your dog's confidence without overwhelming. In some instances, we might have to involve a veterinarian. It depends on the severity of the situation.
NO SHOCK OR PRONG
I never use prong collars and prefer not to use shock collars in basic training. I am a trainer who uses positive reinforcement without being permissive. Corrections do not have to be harsh. They just need to be consequential. Most of the dogs want to please us and simply do not understand what you do not like. It is a matter of clear communication.
