Hello and thank you for taking the time to provide us with your dog's information, your behavior goals, and package interests.
Basic manners is for puppies or adult dogs that do not struggle with fear, aggression, reactivity or separation anxiety. If your dog struggles with any of these, please fill out the behavior consultation form. They MUST start there.
If you are on a basic training package and it is discovered that your dog in fact needs a behavior consultation, the package will be switched from basic to behavior, and any additional fees will be applied.
Important note: All members of the household are required to commit to aversive free methods during our time together. Aversive tools/methods include: shock, choke, prong, and barking collars. In addition to shaking cans, collar corrections (pops), pinning dogs down, rubbing their faces in urine and feces, hitting or kicking, and slip leads. These methods may hamper training and cause emotional trauma and negative behavioral side effects. The use of invisible or shock fence is also aversive and can hamper training by potentially increasing or installing fear, anxiety and aggression, as well as causes excessive barking in many dogs.
