Positive training solutions for ALL dogs!
Working privately with a trainer 1:1 is a GREAT way to make sure you and your dog get the MOST out of your training exerience. Private sessions are available for basic manners and obedience training as well as behavior modification (anxiety, aggression, reactivity, fear etc.). Private sessions are generally done at my office located at Midcoast Humane Society in Brunswick, but in-home services are also available depending on your location. Private services are avalable virtually or in person, and for those who want to take a class but don’t want to participate in a full group affair I also offer 1:1 private classes!
Virtual (online) Session
Behavior Problems & General Manners
NEW in 2020 we are now offering VIRTUAL (online) sessions! Looking to solve your dog’s behavioral problem but you’re stuck at home? no worries! Lets solve that problem, remotely! Virtual sessions are done using Zoom and are available in 30 and 60 minute sessions.
Private Sessions (in person)
Behavior Problems & General Manners
Private sessions are available at the office or at your home!
These sessions are for owners with dogs who are struggling with a behavior problem that requires one on one time with a trainer. Or those who prefer private training over a group class for puppy training, basic or advanced manners and more. Private sessions are done in home or on-site at my Brunswick training facility (at Midcoast Humane Society) and provide you with a clear, concise plan for solving your dog's behavior issues or meeting your training goals. Sessions are available singly or in bundle packages, please inquire for more details.
1:1 Classes
Puppy 2, Puppy 3, and Family Dog Manners Programs
Lets face it, group classes just aren’t for everyone! Maybe they don’t work for your schedule, or maybe your dog is overwhelmed in a room with too many other dogs, maybe it’s just not an easy environment for YOU to focus in and you prefer a 1:1 approach. Don’t worry, we have private versions of our classes available as well.
In a private class we will meet for 5 sessions, 60 minutes per session with sessions spaced out at 1-2 week intervals. The same material that is covered in the group class will be delivered to you in a 1:1 format, without other students and dogs distracting you or your dog. Individual training topics will be discussed, exercises demonstrated and you’ll have time to practice each new behavior during the session. You will be left with clear homework goals and handouts to keep you working from week to week. Talk about full service!
Private classes are available for the basic manners programs, including: Puppy 2 (ages 3-7mo), Puppy 3 (ages 8-24m) or Family Dog Manners (adult)
PLEASE NOTE, THIS OPTION IS FOR BASIC MANNERS ONLY. IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING A BEHAVIORAL PROBLEM YOU WANT TO ADDRESS, PLEASE REQUEST A PRIVATE SESSION.
