During Private Lessons, we will discuss where you feel your dog is at and determine the skills that you feel your dog needs guidance with. During theses sessions, to ensure expectations are clear for the dog, we start with little to no distractions so we can properly teach them how to follow leash pressure and/or any training collars, engagement and focus with thier handler, and understanding of their obedience with proper positioning, consistency, and duration. The success of Private Lessons will be largely up to the work owners do with their dog outside of the 1 Hour Lesson. Once your dog has a clear understanding of rules and expectations, we will begin to take these practices into more distracting environments in their next lessons. It is important to keep in mind that proper, fair training, especially in terms of reactivity and behavior modification, takes time and there is no quick fix, so in many cases it will require more than a few lessons to reach your end goals.
