Private Training for Good Manners

Good Manners classes not fitting your schedule? Maybe you would prefer to meet on weekends, earlier in the day, or with more time between sessions? Perhaps you'd like to customize your dog's Good Manners training program so the whole family, including the kids, can get involved. We can help! We offer private training at our facility in Frederick for $80/hour.

Good Manners Package:

$375 includes an initial 60 minute private training session and four additional 40 minute sessions, plus a free Training Starter Kit ($50 value! Includes Good Manners Workbook, Premier Easy Walk harness, clicker & wristband, and treat pouch). Great way to get off to the right start with a new puppy or get on the right track with an older dog. We'll customize a curriculum for your needs, including behaviors like sit, down, wait, polite greeting, walking on lead, leave-it, and coming when called. Owners will learn how to use a clicker, teach behaviors, and how to prevent or modify common behavior challenges. Dog-friendly methods are used throughout.
