FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I charge $150 per session for private lessons and offer discounts for payment in advance and for semi-private sessions.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
After text messaging and an agreement to work together is reached an initial appointment is made. At that appointment I meet both the dog and relevant family members. I assess the dog's temperament and get a history from the owner(s). This enables me to develop a training plan and to begin working with the dog.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a Certified Professional Dog Trainer-Knowledge Assessed (CPDT-KA) and a member of the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT) and do continuing education through this organization and other experts. I am also an AKC Canine Good Citizen evaluator.
