Family Dog Training: My core principle is to teach good dog behavior using positive reinforcement.  Each desired behavior is introduced in a positive fashion, and the instant the behavior occurs, the action is reinforced with positive feedback to your dog.
I offer a 6 week basic Family Dog Training classes for dogs six months and older.  This class is designed to teach owners how dogs think, learn and communicate, with the goal of producing polite, well-mannered dogs.  Owners will be taught the skills to train their dogs to: relax and connect with you, basic commands like sit, lie down, stay, heel, be still in all positions, watch, recall, and possibly tricks.
      Cost:  $95.00
      Time: 6 week course, one class a week

Private Consultation: Private lessons are available for behavior consulting, modification, problem solving, obedience and temperament evaluation.  Private lessons are tailored to the owner’s concerns and goals, as well as the specific needs of the dog.  Private lessons are the ideal place to get help with behavioral issues such as house-soiling, chewing and destructive behavior, barking, fears, shyness, aggression, resource guarding, or that one “problem command” that has not yet been mastered.
     Cost:  Initial Appointment $95.00/Hour, Follow Up Sessions $75.00 - $95.00/Hour
     For House Calls, an additional trip charge depending on mileage to your home.

Phone Consultation: I offer phone call consultations for those who have a dog with a behavior or training problem, but cannot work with me in person due to distance or logistical constraints.  This can be an effective tool in getting help for you and your dog.  Some behavior problems that I can help via phone: anxiety, sound phobias, new puppy concerns, destructiveness, house training, crate training.
Phone consultations are typically around ½ hour to 1 hour in length and the fee is $75/hr.  Please call my office at (989) 785-6609 or email me to set up a phone consultation.
