Private Training

Personalized Support. Proven Methods. Real Results.

Whether you're welcoming a new puppy or working through behavioral challenges with an older dog, private training offers focused, one-on-one support tailored to your dog’s unique needs. I use balanced training methods—a thoughtful blend of positive reinforcement and clear boundaries—to help dogs thrive and build lasting trust with their humans.

What Is Balanced Training?

Balanced training combines reward-based techniques with fair corrections to guide your dog toward better behavior. It’s not about punishment—it’s about communication. I focus on:

Building confidence and clarity for your dog
Teaching practical obedience and manners
Addressing unwanted behaviors with compassion and consistency

What to Expect

Each session is 100% customized to your goals. I’ll meet you at your home or a suitable location, assess your dog’s behavior, and create a training plan that fits your lifestyle.

You’ll get:

A full behavioral assessment
Hands-on coaching during each session
Homework and follow-up support
Honest feedback and realistic goals

Who Is Private Training For?

Private sessions are ideal for:

Puppies learning the basics (sit, down, leash walking, potty training)
Adolescent dogs testing boundaries
Rescue dogs adjusting to a new home
Dogs with reactivity, anxiety, or other minor behavioral issues/concerns
Owners who want personalized coaching and wanting to put the work in themselves
Owners who have done training with their pets previously, and need a refresher

Training doesn’t end when I leave
The biggest changes happen when owners commit to practicing consistently at home and integrating training into everyday life. That means adjusting routines, setting clear boundaries, and reinforcing training daily. Dogs thrive on structure—and that starts with you.
