Description
Private Sessions are programs catered to your specific needs. We develop a special training and behavioral management plan that meets your specific goals, and your environment. Training in your home is more flexible than classes so we can work around your varying schedule, (and you avoid driving and traffic). Many behaviors occur only in the home, another location, or under certain circumstances. Your best chance for success is to train in that environment.
Polite Greeting of Guests and Pool Training are examples of behaviors that need to be taught in your environment. Although most dogs can swim, they need to know where the stairs are to know the way out. Note: It is not true that all Bulldogs can not swim. Jacqueline once taught a family with an American Bulldog, French Bulldog, and a Pug how to swim back to the stairs. Yes, those were very funny training sessions.
Private Sessions run approximately one hour. The first session is typically longer and usually lasts one and a half hours. Prices below assume driving time will be within 30 minutes of North Hollywood. We can accommodate further distances for an additional driving fee. Advantages to enrolling in private sessions include: One-on-one attention: This ensures you get my attention 100% of the time. It makes it easier for some students that need the extra help. Basic Obedience behaviors are usually taught during private sessions along with any specific issues you wish to address.
Increase your dog’s confidence: Many problem behaviors dogs exhibit are simply a lack of confidence. We can begin working on this before starting your dog in a group class.
Less distractions: Many dogs are distracted easily. Starting with private sessions teaches the dog to focus on you. Once the dog has learned a few behaviors, we are ready to” take it on the road”. Multiple People In Your Home? We can train your entire family at your home, for at least one session so everyone is on the same page. You can go to classes to further the training.
