In-Person Training
Personalized, hands-on support for specific goals or challenges.Ā
When In-Person Training Is Helpful
In-person training is best suited for situations where hands-on guidance makes a meaningful difference. This might include addressing specific behavior challenges, refining skills in real environments, or working toward advanced goals such as service dog tasks or public-access reliability.
These sessions allow for real-time feedback and individualized coaching, helping both you and your dog understand not just what to do, but why it works.
How In-Person Training Fits Into Our Approach
Most clients benefit from building strong foundations before beginning in-person training. When there is a shared understanding of how learning works and how skills are taught, sessions become more focused, efficient, and productive.
In-person training is not meant to replace foundations, but to build on them. This approach supports clearer communication, reduces frustration, and helps progress feel steady rather than rushed.
What to Expect From a Session
In-person sessions are intentionally structured and centered on coaching the human as much as the dog. The focus is on clear communication, thoughtful handling, and practical application in real-world settings.
Each session is tailored to your individual goals and circumstances, allowing space to address challenges as they arise while reinforcing long-term skills.
Location and Availability
In-person training is offered locally in and around Carson City. Availability is limited and scheduled based on current capacity, location, and the type of support needed. Some sessions may involve working in the home, while others take place in public or real-world environments.
Travel considerations and scheduling details are discussed during the inquiry process to ensure the best fit for both you and your dog.
Investment and Planning
In-person training is offered at $100 per hour and reflects the time, expertise, and individualized attention involved in hands-on work. Sessions are structured intentionally rather than offered as casual or drop-in appointments.
Recommendations around session length, frequency, and focus are made after learning more about your goals, your dog, and the type of support that will be most effective. This allows training to remain thoughtful, efficient, and aligned with long-term progress rather than quick fixes.
