Private Lessons

  • ​Group classes don't fit in your schedule? 
  • Rather just work on the skills your dog needs to fit into your family? 
  • Your dog finds a group class setting too overwhelming?
  • The skills you want to teach aren't covered in a group class?
​
The solution: Private training lessons for you and your dog at your home and personalized just for your needs.

Training and Behaviour Modification Available

Dogs have brought so much joy into my life, and I love including them in things that I do, family visits, etc.  But I have also faced challenges with their behaviour, and I know how upsetting and stressful those challenges can be.  My goal is to help other people achieve a more joyful relationship with their dog, moving past current challenges.  I always keep the real life situation in mind as we work toward your goals.
​
​I can help with concerns such as
  • Welcoming a New Puppy
  • Come when called
  • Stay
  • Leave it
  • Walking without pulling
  • Place
  • Jumping Up
  • Overexcitement towards guests
  • Integrating a new dog
  • Preparing for vet visits
  • Barking​
  • Fear of guests
  • Reactivity towards people/dogs
  • Separation Distress
  • Resource Guarding
  • ​Dog-Dog aggression in your home
and more!   ​If unsure that your situation is suitable, please contact me and ask.

How does it work:

We start by discussing your specific concerns and the options available to address your concerns.  Since in my experience, one lesson is rarely enough to see the kind of changes people are seeking, I have programs available that include more than one lesson and going support so that we can assess your dog's progress and if needed tweak the exercises to best help them.  However, I also offer individual lessons/consults if people would like to meet in person first before committing to a program, or for situations where a single lesson is all that is needed.

In the first lesson I talk to you about your concerns and desired outcomes, observe your dog, and then demonstrate and coach your through some training exercises to help you reach your goal.  I will then prepare a custom summary of what we covered in your lesson including any management recommendations and step by step summaries of the training exercises we did and email that to you after your lesson.   

If you enroll in a training/behaviour modification program I will design a personalized training/behaviour modification plan for your dog, taking into consideration your individual goals and situation.  I select exercises that are doable for you and your dog and will help your dog's skills improve so that you can make progress towards your goals.
