Private Training
Private training is a great option for dogs who may not be well suited to a group class or for owners who do not have a schedule that works with group classes. For private sessions, I come to your home to work with you and your dog. I recommend that all owners are present for sessions so that everyone receives the same information and coaching. Private training sessions can be used to address any behavioural concern or training goals! Common topics covered in private training include leash reactivity, aggression or nervousness towards people and dogs, separation anxiety and calm greetings with new people. You'll receive a detailed training plan following your session so you can ensure you are following out the training covered in your session. ​

FAQS
Q: Can You Cover All My Concerns In One Session?
A: Depending on the severity and complexity of your dog's concerns a session may focus on one issue at a time. The amount covered in a session is highly dependent on the individual dog, but I try to ensure that you get the most out of each session!
​
Q: Do I Need To Have Treats Ready?
A: You are more than welcome to provide treats for your dog, but I always have plenty. I recommend skipping your dog's meal before their training session or at least cutting it by half. I also recommend having a treat pouch on hand for your sessions so it is easier to work with your dog.
​
Q: What Happens During A Session?
A: Each session will be slightly different, but generally they follow the same format. Before your session you will fill out an intake form so I can better understand your training goals. At the start of your session we will discuss your goals and I will ask you clarifying questions. From there I will explain what we are covering and help you understand your dog's behaviour. Following this I will demonstrate different handling skills and exercises before coaching you through them!
