Trainings and Consulations

In Private Lesson Training, you work one-on-one with the trainer to reach your goals. Lessons can be done at your home, our home, or in public locations. Private lesson training includes puppy training, crate training, potty training, socialization, obedience training, e-collar training, and manners at home and in public.

When you book private lessons with us, you tell us what you would like to work on with your dog, and we customize each lesson to meet your training objectives. This gives us the freedom and flexibility to train your specific dog. There is nothing cookie-cutter about our private lesson program. In between lessons, you can call or text your trainer anytime with questions to stay on track. We are here to help you every step of the way! Clients achieve great results from this program and enjoy the flexibility it allows them. We have three great lesson packages to meet your needs.

  • Bronze package (four 1-hour lessons) $599.00

  • Silver package (six 1-hour lessons) $749.00

  • Gold package (eight 1-hour lessons) $899.00

A board & train is a comprehensive learning experience for your dog. During a board & train, your dog lives with the trainer in his/her home and does one to two hours of total training each day in addition to exercise and playtime. At the end of training, you pick up a happy, well-behaved dog, and we teach you what your dog has learned with us so you can continue that training at home. After that, you are in maintenance mode and get to enjoy your well-behaved dog for life!

The board training option enhances learning and sets dogs up for success with obedience and manners training. It is an excellent choice for busy households, for travel (to board and train while you are gone), and for getting great results in a short period of time.

Let us help you train your dog!

We do this through supervised play time, yard time, toy play, treadmill training, structured time on the place bed, and more.

Most importantly, we keep your dog’s manners and training intact so you come home to a tired, happy, and still well-behaved dog. This service is offered to present and past clients only. It is for dogs who are crate-trained and potty-trained.

  • Nightly $55.00

  • Additional dogs (same household) $40.00

  • Holidays +$10.00

  • Training $50.00 (30 min) or $95.00 (60 min)

The first step to getting started with training is booking a Private Consultation for your dog. This allows us to find out more information about your dog’s background and history, and then assess your dog’s behavior so we can recommend the best-fit training program for your dog. Consultations are generally recommended for dogs four months of age and older or dogs with behavioral issues. Consultations for our Chattanooga location are done virtually.

  • Consultation fee – $99.00
