These sessions are typically 1.5 hours long and we address any particular issues you're having as well as basic obedience. Our first session is always in your home, so I come to you! After that, additional lessons may take place in other areas depending on what we're trying to work through. Private lessons are designed to be built on, so we work on foundational skills to begin with and move on from there depending on where the dog is at. Sessions are typically every other week to ensure you have enough time to practice your 'homework' before we get together next, so be prepared to schedule several lessons at once.  

These Private lessons are designed to help owners prepare and work through the "joys" of a young dog's life! Puppies can be tons of fun, but there's a lot more than most people realize when it comes to shaping them into confident, well balanced adults! In this 1.5 hour session at your home, we go over EVERYTHING you could imagine from potty training, nipping, chewing, developmental stages, and more! You can teach obedience at any point in a dogs life, but you only get a few short months and moments to mold a puppy into who they're going to be for the rest of their lives... no pressure! This puppy pack is a great way to set them up for success, so it's designed for dogs that are 8 weeks to 24 weeks of age. 

We're experienced working with different types of behavioral issues ranging from anxiety, a lack of confidence, resource guarding, and different forms of aggression, so we're not afraid to handle your unruly pup! These lessons do touch on foundational obedience in a way that is designed to help you and your dog redirect certain behaviors, but the main focus is about finding the root of the issues as well as coming up with a customized game plan to start addressing them. Each initial private session is held in your home, but additional sessions may be held elsewhere if needed for optimal training and practice scenarios. 

Depending on what you're looking to address, I do offer Video Calls to help you work through small issues or questions! These sessions are typically an hour long and can range from "Pre-Puppy Prepwork" to simply getting your dog to stop barking! This avenue is also helpful for people who aren't centrally located to the area. Virtual lessons are not meant for any form of aggression training or advanced obedience.
