Services during COVID-19
Our service options have changed a bit since Safer At Home orders went into effect, but we're still committed to helping you bring out your dog's best. All our services begin with a free phone consult to make sure we're a good fit and get all your questions answered risk-free! You can schedule yours here.
Virtual Dog Training (SUMMER SALE!)
Let's be real here. Most of what we do is actually training PEOPLE how to get the behaviors they want from their dogs and that's exactly what you'll get out of these live video calls using either Zoom, FaceTime, or whatever platform works best for you. Working virtually enables me to offer one-on-one training at a lower price point, and we truly are able to work through just about any issue this way (even leash manners, reactivity, and aggression... yes, REALLY)!
I will start by explaining things from your dog's perspective so you understand where the misunderstanding is and then will provide verbal guidance while watching you implement the techniques, the same as we would do in an in-person lesson. As needed, I can demo what to do using one of my own dogs.
All our training includes LIFETIME SUPPORT via text, phone, or email. Clients are welcomed to send videos of their training efforts for further guidance at any time! We are never satisfied until you get the results you desire.
We are currently offering virtual private lessons in the following options:
Single 1-hour virtual lesson .......... $125
Pkg. of (3) 1-hr virtual lessons ...... $320
Please know that our special low-level e-collar training program (as described further down this page) is now being offered in this virtual format as well and has shown similar success to the in-person version we had offered before covid! This is a VERY unique opportunity for you to afford this level of training if you haven't been able to in the past because it will never be offered at this low of a price point again! Please take advantage of this incredible discount while it lasts...
6-lesson virtual program .............. $600
Remote training collar ……............ $180
In-Home Private Lessons (temporarily not available)
Private lessons take place in the comfort of your own home. They last about an hour and a half and can cover any issue you wish you address. Private lessons are best for addressing:
-
Basic obedience commands (sit/stay, down/stay, heel, come, place) for dogs not ready for group class or requiring special attention
-
Behavior problems such as poor leash manners, chewing, digging, jumping up, barking, not listening, or other unwanted behavior
-
Housetraining
-
Preparing for a new dog or puppy in the household
-
Learning how to provide appropriate leadership to your dog
-
Gaining a better understanding of how your dog thinks, what he's trying to communicate (why he does what he does), and how to get him to listen to you
There are two options for purchasing private lessons. The package discount is available for payments made at time of first lesson only.
Single 1.5-hr lesson ........................ $200
(3) 1.5-hr lessons package ............ $550
Low-Level Remote Collar Training (temp N/A)
This is a very special and highly effective hands-on course that teaches you, the pet owner, how to remote collar train your dog in the comfort of your home with the goal of off-leash reliability through distractions by the end of 6 lessons!

This program includes mastery of all the basic commands such as come, sit/stay, down/stay, heel, and place. In addition, every problem behavior under the sun including human aggression, dog aggression, resource guarding, leash reactivity, overactive prey drive, fearfulness, separation anxiety, mouthing, house soiling, pulling on leash, distractibility and lack of general manners can all be worked through in this course!

Board & Train (temporarily not available)
Board & Train is essentially a boot camp that takes place in our home (yes, our actual home, not a kennel facility). For dogs that need a behavioral overhaul and clients with little time for training, this may be the way to go! Please contact us for more details about this program, as it is completely customized for each client's specific needs. Board & Train is offered at a minimum duration of 3 weeks, although longer stays may be required depending on the dog and training needed. To insure your dog's continued success once he/she goes home, our Board & Train program includes 3 private sessions of after care!
**We only take two dogs at a time for Board & Train so space is very limited and often books months in advance.**
Board & Train (3 weeks) ............. $3,500
Additional weeks (per week) ..... $1,000
Remote training collar ……............ $180
Leash & Social Manners Group Class (temporarily N/A)
This class is for anyone whose dog pulls, barks, or doesn't have the best manners when approaching other dogs or people. It is also great for dogs that are shy or wary of other people or dogs, as well as those that are easily excitable and like to jump up on people they meet.
This is almost entirely a walking class so be sure to wear comfortable shoes. We will walk around the park, practicing loose leash walking and teaching each dog how to approach other dogs and people in an appropriate manner. Shy dogs will have ample opportunities to receive postitive interactions from strangers and all dogs are respected to progress through this class at their own pace. Attendees of this class must have had at least one private lesson with us prior to the class.
5 week class ................................... $200
Next class day/time: Thursdays at 6:30pm (Reactive dogs welcome!)
Next start date: TBA
Location: Warner Center Park - 5800 Topanga Cyn Blvd, Woodland Hills, CA 91367
