Dog Training Services
Each dog learns at his own pace and you must not ever rush it! There are no guarantees and the end result is up to you. Effort + Time = Success
First step: Fill out our online training questionnaire.
Second step: A telephone consultation, to discuss your training needs and to be sure we are compatible as a team for your dog.
Important:
All dogs need to be up to date on vaccinations and healthy, prior to training.
Private Sessions
Private training is in your home unless otherwise noted.
First time session is the basic 60 minutes and includes an evaluation of your dog(s). Private sessions can address a variety of issues including but not limited to: jumping, barking, digging, mouthing, chewing, humping, counter surfing, crate training, potty training, leash pulling, leash reactivity, obedience, and mild aggression issues. I will leave you with a verbal training plan, recommended tools and home work. Without doing the home work there will be few results.
1 on 1 only, 60 minute session $175 (most clients need 1 additional visit)
1 on 1 , 60 min. follow-up session $150
Package 1 includes initial 1 on 1, 60 mins. and 2 separate – 60 min. sessions ($475 value) $425

*All private sessions are held in clients home or a public place.
We recommend an initial telephone consultation to discuss your training needs.
Group Classes
Classes are generally held outdoors from April-September.
We are currently joining Orchard Point Kennel and the classes listed below will be held at their facility starting 4/17/2024. 27178 Clear Lake Road, Eugene
We offer “Life Skills for Dogs, Leadership for Owners” group classes. Class details listed below. All potential clients must go through a preliminary telephone consultation prior to joining any class. (Included in class fee)
*Dogs with bite records of any kind or serious leash aggression are not eligible for classes and should schedule a private session or enroll in one of our multiple session programs.
Our “Life Skills for Puppies” group classes for puppies 8 – 20 weeks of age. Puppies learn basics such as sit, down, come, heel, place, no and break, through a reward system and owners learn how to correct unwanted behaviors such as biting and jumping. We will put a large emphasis on confidence building exercises during each class. No classes at this time.

1st class is lecture only, No Dogs.
Our “Life Skills for Dogs” class is for dogs 6 months and older and will learn their basics, such as sit, down, come, heel, place, no and break. We then “proof” the commands while gradually adding distractions. I teach you how to effectively stop unwanted behaviors with corrections such as jumping, bolting and biting. Leadership skills for owners. Classes will be primarily outdoors, please dress for weather.
All dogs will be required to have their Distemper, Bordetella and Rabies vaccines up to date.

Pack Walks
Does your dog need help walking on leash in a calm manner?
Do you need to gain better leadership skills?
Join like minded dog owners for a migrating walk with their dogs, many of whom were once reactive on leash. Our walk is similar to an outdoor class setting. We do activities as a group and we share training tips at our halfway point. We practice social distancing and there is no nose to nose contact between dogs. *If your dog is human aggressive or is showing severe on leash aggression, you may benefit from a private session prior to joining pack walks.
*All walks will be photographed/videoed to be shared on social media.
Sunday pack walks, Orchard Point Park, 27171 Clear Lake Rd, Eugene, 11 am, pull into the 2nd parking lot, at the marina. Walk over the foot bridge and meet by the bathrooms. At this walk we will join 2 other trainers, Ryan & Mandy, from Orchard Point Kennel for more training opportunities.
