Private Training

Private training is the best way to receive customized, individual attention from our expert trainers. Our private lessons are perfect for anyone who wants one-on-one attention or a customizable schedule. Any issue or behavior can be addressed through one on one sessions, but private training is necessary for anyone who is tackling more difficult training goals or behaviors that are worsened by participating in group classes (such as fear and reactivity).

Generally our lessons are held at our beautiful, indoor, temperature controlled training center where we have plenty of room and space to work on any issue.

Virtual lessons are also offered and in-home training is available by request and includes a travel fee.

To get started, fill out our Behavior Questionnaire.
