 Training Your Best Friend, LLC provides customized private dog training lessons to address specific issues that you are experiencing with your dog. Private in-home training lessons allows Christie to look more closely at your situation and goals to custom design a successful dog training program with you in mind.   Christie can help you with a variety of behaviors and training goals.

Private Lessons focuses on resolving problems. In-home training lessons sessions allow for the full attention of the trainer and designed to include all household members. This approach allows for training that is not only focused on the individual needs of each dog, but that is conducted in an environment that is familiar to your pet, providing optimal learning conditions. In-home dog training is effective because it gives the trainer direct insight into the lifestyle and environment which ultimately influences your dog’s behavior and demeanor.

Private in-home training has many benefits in the comfort of your home. Your dog is in his familiar environment and often is more relaxed and open to training. There are minimum distractions that will foster a positive experience.

We help clients understand how to properly train their dog with positive reinforcement & recognize their dog’s need for structure, guidance as well as fulfilling their dog’s needs. This is the key to eliminating unwanted behaviors and creating a healthy, balanced, non-destructive companion.

                                   How it works

The first lesson is 2 hours so we can be completely thorough. This includes a complete evaluation to observe the behaviors and dynamics of your situation as well as leave you with the appropriate training skills to address the issues you share with us, and anything else we see that will help you.

                                                                                 What To Expect

The purpose of the initial consult is to learn more about you and your dog, observe your dog’s responses in quiet environment with just the right number of distractions, gather information from you and your family, fully understand your training objectives and take a complete history prior to training. 

We will determine together with you if your goals are met with the first session or if you need follow up sessions. We may recommend a specific group class that we feel would be beneficial to further implement the training.  

A follow up training session of one hour is strongly recommended to help ensure transfer of skills and knowledge has been accomplished as well as addressing any concerns that has come up as well. Our follow up training session will fine tune what you’ve already learned as well as showing you more training skills to add in. However, many of our private sessions will go on to a group class to continue educational and developing skills.

The number of Private dog training sessions differs for each dog depending on your specific situation. The action plan is to help you achieve your goals as quickly as possible. Our focus is on quality over quantity. We do not try to oversell lessons. We guarantee the training methods if you follow the training lessons and protocol. However, there are no quick fixes. You must consistently work with your dog and take full responsibility for your dog’s behavior along with your investment in training.
