In-Home Training
Overview and Benefits
The first step is a one-hour in-home consultation where we get to know your dog, your family, and your training goals. During this session, we assess behavior in your dog’s natural environment, explain why they act the way they do, and give you practical strategies to prevent and manage challenges. Afterward, you’ll receive a customized training plan tailored to your dog’s needs.
Ongoing private in-home dog training sessions are available to reinforce skills, address behavior issues, and help your dog succeed in the comfort of home.

In-home training is ideal for puppies learning early foundations, dogs working on basic manners, and behavior cases that benefit from familiar surroundings. It’s perfect for owners who want personalized guidance and hands-on support in their everyday environment.
