FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What types of training do you offer?

We specialize in one-on-one, in-home training tailored to your dog’s unique needs. Services include basic obedience, behavior modification, puppy training, leash manners, reactivity, and more. Every session is personalized to help you build a better relationship with your dog.

How much does it cost?

Pricing depends on the type and length of training program recommended after an initial consultation. We offer single sessions as well as discounted packages for ongoing support.

What ages and breeds do you train?

All breeds and all ages are welcome—from young puppies just starting out to older dogs needing a tune-up or behavior help. Every dog can learn, regardless of age or breed.

What are your training methods?

We use a balanced, relationship-based approach that focuses on clear communication, structure, and consistency. Our goal is to help you understand your dog’s behavior and build a respectful, lasting bond.

How long does training take?

Every dog is different, so the timeline varies. We’ll assess your dog’s needs and tailor a plan that works for your goals and lifestyle. Each individual session typically takes about an hour.

Do you offer any discounts?

Yes! We offer package pricing for multiple sessions, which provides significant savings and ensures consistent progress. The initial evaluation is just a small fee, and if you decide to move forward, that fee is fully applied toward the cost of your training program.

We also include unlimited FREE phone and text consults during your training to support you every step of the way, plus a FREE follow-up visit to touch up on any remaining needs once training is complete.

Unlike a one-size-fits-all approach of some classes, our training is designed specifically for you and your dog. By working in your home and focusing on real-life behavior, we’re able to create lasting changes that go far beyond basic commands.

What is different about your training?

What truly sets our training apart is the relationship we help you build with your dog. It’s not just about getting your dog to “listen”—it’s about creating a bond built on trust, respect, and clear communication.

We focus on developing the kind of working relationship where your dog responds the first time—because it wants to work with you. It’s the same kind of teamwork you see between a guide dog and their handler—calm, confident, in sync.

Are you certified or professionally trained?

Yes. Your trainer is certified through Animal Behavior College, a nationally recognized institution for dog training education. In addition to formal coursework, she completed a hands-on internship with a respected Birmingham trainer who has over 30 years of experience in the field.

Ongoing education and training ensure you’re getting expert guidance based on the latest in dog psychology.

Do you offer any follow-up support?

Absolutely. We’re here for you beyond the training sessions. Follow-up support may include phone or email guidance, your FREE follow-up visit, or continued training as needed—because lasting results matter.
