Beyond the Basics
One-on-One Support for Dogs Who Need a Little Extra Help
Not all dogs fit into a group class — and that’s okay. Our Private Training Sessions are designed for dogs with specific behavioral challenges or unique needs that require a personalized approach.
Whether you’re struggling with leash reactivity, fear-based behaviors, overexcitement, or adjusting to a rescue dog, we’ll work together to build a plan that works for your dog — and for you.
Single sessions $125
3 sessions $340 (Save $35!)
5 sessions $560 (Save $65!)
Ideal for: dogs with behavior challenges that go beyond basic manners. Rescue or recently adopted dogs adjusting to a new home and routine. Shy, fearful, or anxious dogs who get overwhelmed in group settings. Reactive dogs who bark, lunge, or struggle with triggers on walks. Busy dog owners who want focused, flexible, one-on-one support. Families who need custom strategies for their home environment, schedule, or lifestyle
