Program Guides
Each guide covers what the program is, how it is usually priced and what to settle ahead of time.
Board and Train Stays
Before your dog leaves, the logistics deserve as much attention as the training.
$1,500 to $2,500+ for 2 to 3 weeksRead the guide →
Transition Lessons
A skill learned in a trainer's field does not always survive the trip home.

Young Dog Starter
Puppies under a few months old are usually better off learning at home with their family than staying away.

Home Practice Visits

Core Skills Package
A core skills package works like a curriculum: each lesson builds on the one before.
$500 to $1,200 per packageRead the guide →
