    We do not offer board and train services.  We feel that it is important for the owner to be a part of the
    training process and that positive training greatly improves any dog/human relationship.

    We offer many different options for people needing private lessons.  Please see all of our private
    training options below.

    To see our class schedules and locations please visit our Class Schedule page.

    Private Behavioral/Problem Solving Sessions
    For clients with dogs who need work with a specific behavioral issue such as fear issues, potty training,
    barking or a specific obedience behavior such as coming when called or walking on a loose leash.  
    These are intended for issues that usually don't need follow up sessions.  

    All of our private initial sessions are 1 1/2 to 2 hours long which gives us enough time to collect
    necessary information and to actually get started with our training plan.  
    $150 for a 1 1/2 to 2 hour session (follow up sessions are $100 per hour)

    We network and consult with some of the most experienced, reputable and qualified behavior
    specialists in the Bay Area.  If we can't help you with your dog, we will put you in contact with a trainer
    who knows how to deal with your dogs individual issue using scientific, proven, dog friendly methods.  

    Private Puppy Sessions
    Our private puppy sessions allow clients to have in home help with puppy issues.  We can discuss and
    work on whichever specific puppy issues the client is having.  We can also help set up the home before
    or after the puppy arrives or oversee first meeting and interaction with resident dog.
    $100 for a 1 hour session

    Conformation Private Lessons/Coaching
    For clients who want to learn to show their own dogs, we can coach you for conformation or show ring
    training.  We can help you decide what class to show in, which shows to enter, what to wear, and how to
    handle your own dog.

    You may also opt to bring your dog for 1 hour conformation lessons where we will work with your dog
    for you while you obeserve.  Some clients even opt to drop their dogs off for the 1 hour session while
    they have lunch or shop.  This training is helpful for clients who have their breeder handle their dog but
    want the dog to have some show ring training.
    $60 per hour (or $30 for 1/2 hour) for while you watch or drop your dog off sessions

    If you have two friends (for a total of three people) who would like to do the Clicker Conformation Class,
    we will put together a private class for you and your two friends.  The cost is $200 per person.

    obedience.

    Private Grooming Instruction
    For clients who need help with basic grooming of their dogs or puppies.  We will meet in your home or
    at our San Leandro location.  The session will help you understand what equipment is appropriate,
    what shampoos to use, how to clip nails, brush teeth and more.  This service is NOT intended to take
    the place of regular grooming or veterinary visits, only to show you how to care for your dogs coat (and
    ears, teeth and nails) in between professional visits.  We will not train people to clip, scissor or style
    coat or clean teeth.  We will not groom your pet for you.  We will not give grooming instruction for
    aggressive dogs.

    Private Beginning Obedience Package
    This package is offered for clients who are looking for beginning obedience training on a private level in
    the client's home or at our training facility. This package includes 6 sessions.  The first session is 1 and
    1/2 hours, the remaining 5 sessions are up to 1 hour.  Clients will be taught how to teach their dog a
    variety of behaviors including sit, lie down, come here, off, out, stay and others.  Minor behavioral
    issues can also be discussed during these private sessions.
    $550 for the entire package

    Private Puppy Package
    While we recommend that all puppies attend our Puppy Preschool classes, we understand that this is
    not always possible.  This package includes three 1 hour sessions in your home and four play/social
    group visits.  We will help you set up your puppy areas, puppy proof your home, and discuss puppy
    issues such as play biting, housebreaking and crate training.  We will also work on basic beginning
    behaviors such as sit, down, come here, out, off and walking on a leash.

    I am happy to spend a portion of the puppy package helping owners set up their homes for the puppy.  
    I will come to the home before the puppy comes to help prepare for the puppy.  And, when it's
    necessary and possible schedule-wise I can come to the home when the puppy is actually brought
    home to oversee interaction with resident dogs or to set up.
    $275  for the entire package

    While You Watch Training
    You bring the dog to our San Leandro facility and we will work the dog for you.  You can watch us train
    your dog and then practice at home.
