Private In-Home Dog Training
What makes our in-home lessons so awesome?
- Since it is just us, we can customize training any way you like. When you complete the New Client Form, you will provide me with a wish list that spells out exactly what you are interested in working on. We will go from there to build the lesson based on your needs. And we probably have some ideas you have not even thought of!
- All of the programs include working on any negative behaviors such as aggression, house soiling, sibling rivalry, jumping, barking, etc.
- Your dog learns best in his own environment and acts like himself. That way we can work on the specific behaviors you are looking to change.
- Distractions are to a minimum. It is so much easier for your pooch to put on his thinking cap when he is comfortable.
- Prepares your dog for more challenging environments. Because we can change locations, we make it easy for your dog at first, but don't worry, we will add distractions as your dog does well. That way your dog is taught to listen to you everywhere. Often I bring my own dogs to test your dog's reliability once we have laid a good foundation.
- We are able to spend longer together and you and your dog learn so much more. Initial lessons are 2 to 2-1/2 hours of intense learning. Follow up lessons are generally 1 to 1-1/2 hours in length.
- Sometimes life gets in the way, and you are unable to keep your scheduled appointment time. Because we are not on a strict schedule, it is easy to reschedule our lessons to a day that better suits. You won't miss a thing!
Private Lesson Programs
Everything you need to reach your goals is included in each of our training programs. Simply choose the program that matches your personal preferences and your needs. This is a true investment into the life you will share with your dog!
Well-Mannered Dog Program - (initial training session and 1 follow-up lesson)
This program is designed to work specifically on living better with your dog. It is designed specifically for folks whose dog is just driving them nuts. Lots of people who have adopted rescue dogs or have young dogs that just haven't settled down and are a bit of a handful. We will tackle those problem behaviors like jumping, mouthing, stealing, chewing, housebreaking, and barking. Most people see a noticeable difference in their dog immediately!
This program is best suited to a family that is able to practice without as much hands-on assistance from the trainer.
We will cover life skills like off, quiet, drop it, leave it, crate, come when called, go to place, sit/stay, and down/stay. This program is fully customizable to meet your specific needs. Many of my aggressive dog clients choose this program if they have behavior problems, but aren't as focused on leash manners such as pulling or reactivity.
*3 Bonus games to get your dog excited and wanting to come every time you call

Dream Dog Program - (initial training session and 3 follow-up lessons)
This program is designed to teach your dog to listen reliably in any situation through obedience and and behavioral commands. Of course, we will solve the behavior problems mentioned in the Well-Behaved Dog Program, but having more commands and lessons at your home will give you a dog who is more reliably. Those two additional lessons give you extra time to learn with the trainer, way more commands, and a chance to practice putting your dog in real-world scenarios.
We will cover life skills like off, quiet, drop it, leave it, crate, come when called, go to place, sit/stay, down/stay, loose leash walking, and off-leash control. This program is fully customizable to meet your specific needs. Many of my aggressive and reactive dog clients choose this program. Generally, at the last two lessons we go places together and I bring a dog so we can practice with real-life distractions.
