6/1/2022 UPDATE:

Currently we are no longer offering group classes or accepting new clients. We are referring to Force Free Trainers of Wisconsin to find a trainer or behavior consultant near you.

Follow our Facebook page for future updates, training tips and information.

Does your dog need house or leash manners? Perhaps just some basic or refresher training? With private training, I can help you create a positive, fun and rewarding experience between you and your dog, right in your own home.

Behaviors such as, jumping, pulling on the leash, play biting/mouthing, not coming or listening, barking, chewing and house training are some of the behaviors I can help you with.

Initial Consult: $140

Single Follow-up Session: $80

**Behavior Modification:  For dogs that  Resource Guard, are Reactive, Fearful or Shy toward humans and other dogs. Please note: if your dog has severe aggression or a bite history, you will be referred to another consultant and/or veterinary behaviorist.

Please call or email for more information and to set up a consultation.

Consultations are required prior to private training, packages or behavior modification sessions. The initial consult will take place at your home and will be 90 minutes to 2 hours in length. The information I receive prior and during our consultation will help me learn more about you and your dog in its most comfortable setting. A plan of action will be customized based (unless a package has been chosen) on the specific situation and what can be accomplished through training or behavior modification.

** All consultation and single training fees are paid in advance prior to your scheduled appointment.

TRAINING PACKAGES: These packages are for families with puppies, newly adopted or adult dogs that need a refresher, continued training or training in basic manners and behaviors in the home.
