Intensive Packages
Get individual, personalized help with your training goals and behavior challenges.
​
Intensive packages give you optimal chances of success by making your trainer available twice a week. This frequency provides the accountability and reinforcement needed to make sure you're doing things correctly so you can see results quickly. Combine your time in private appointments with the time you spend training independently, and your dog stands a very good chance of making progress faster than you anticipated!
