Service Description

(Save $50) 5-Session Training Package | 1 Hour Each This package is a great choice if you are wanting to start a dog or puppy basic obedience course. Over 5 sessions, we'll cover 15+ essential commands and key discussion points that are especially helpful when bringing a new dog into your home. This package is also a great option for dogs who have been with you for a while but need support in improving certain behaviors. Curriculum Overview: Positive Reinforcement Techniques Energy Management Sonia's Dog Schedule for Sanity Puppy Needs: (biting, chewing, barking, potty training) Focus Hand Target Sit + Release Loose Leash Walking Socialization / Desensitization (how to meet other dogs, pets, children) Come when called Impulse control (leave it, wait, drop it) How to make commands last long-term ...and much more. Prioritize Your Dog's Needs Sessions can be tailored to your dog's specific needs. For example, if you'd like to focus more on biting, potty training, reactivity, or other challenges before we move through the general curriculum. Certificate of Achievement Your dog can earn a special Certificate of Achievement upon completing this 5-session package! On the final day, your dog will demonstrate what they've learned in a fun assessment. Dogs who successfully show their new skills will proudly go home with their personalized certificate - a wonderful keepsake celebrating their training journey. This 5-session package includes the full curriculum. However, every dog learns differently- some may need additional sessions beyond this package to complete requirements for certification. We'll assess progress as we go. The Schedule We can meet weekly or bi-weekly, whichever works best for your schedule. I offer flexible availability and am happy to adjust (within reason) to accommodate your needs. All 5 sessions can be booked after purchasing.
