45 Minute In-Home Session
$110
Before you bring a dog into your home and family, take time with your trainer to:
- Ask questions
- Learn what age, breed, size, and type of dog fits best with your family
- Discuss if adding a dog to your current situation (pets/people/home) is a good idea or not
- Set expectations for each family member of the family
- Help set up the house logistically for a puppy or older dog
- Costs coming with a puppy or new dog
Let’s make sure you and the dog are a good fit before you make the big decision!
Alumni Rate
$90
If your dog has completed the Platinum Package training, any additional training session is only $90! Use as many or as few as you like at this discounted price!!!
Do you offer Payment Plans?
While we do not offer payment plans for our dog training services, there is a way we can help split up your training costs just a bit…
We have always allowed people to upgrade from one package to the next. For example, you might want to set up a Platinum Package for $505.00, but as a way to split up the costs into increments you could start with a Silver Package for $145.00; after you complete that session you could upgrade to the Gold Package for $230, giving you two more sessions for the price difference between the Silver and the Gold ($375 – $145 =$230). Once you have completed those sessions, your next step would be to upgrade to the Platinum Package from the Gold for $130, which would give you two more sessions for the difference between the Gold and the Platinum ($505 – $375 = $130).
So, in order to get the Platinum Package without paying for it all at once, you do the following:
Step 1) Silver Package = $145.00
Step 2) Gold Upgrade = $230.00
Step 3) Platinum Upgrade = $130.00
For a total cost of $505.00 (same cost as the Platinum Package)
We can work programs like this with almost all of our services, and while not a payment plan, it is a way to break up the cost of dog training over a longer period. Just let the office know you would like to do the upgrade plan, and we will do our best to help you!
This is only valid for packages (Tiny, Silver, Gold, and Platinum) and not the bundles, due to the fact the bundles already have discounts built into the prices.

A note on scheduling accommodations…
We will always do our best to accommodate group class commitments for pre-paid bundles. If we try to schedule you for a group class on three separate start dates and you cannot attend, our office will reach out to schedule two (2) Silver Package sessions ($290 value) with you to fulfill our training responsibilities for completing the package. These private sessions will be “field trip” sessions out in a public area to work with outside distractions, similar to what we would be doing in a group class setting.
Please be aware, the day of the week of the group classes might change due to the availability of the space we use, but the time will always be from 6:30 pm to 7:30pm. (For example, if you are in a group class that starts on Monday nights in January, all 6 of your classes will be on Monday nights at 6:30pm, but the next new group class that starts in March may be on a different night of the week at 6:30pm.)

Silver Package: Short, Simple and Focused!
This is the introductory level of our in-home training. It is a 45-minute in-home private session. We typically cover how to get your dog to pay attention using resource control/hand feeding techniques. We also teach how to institute “Non-Negotiable Rules” along with new routines. The goal is to get back to rewarding what we like and redirecting what we don’t. We specifically will work on door skills and how to greet house guests the right way. Let’s face it, if your dog can not pay attention to you within the four walls of your own home, then why would you think he/she would be able to do so in a group class, on a walk or when dealing with any other distractions?
As with any of our services, you can upgrade to the next level for just the price difference between the two… so, no pressure… start small and feel free to upgrade if necessary! This is only valid for packages (Tiny, Silver, Gold, and Platinum) and not the bundles, due to the fact the bundles already have discounts built into the prices.

Gold Package: What’s the next step?
Once we have the basics of puppy training going on inside the home, we have to start working on paying attention during distractions by heading outdoors and working on recall and leash skills. We will work not only with regular leashes, but also hands-free setups and long lines. If necessary we will discuss the different no pull devices and weigh the pros and cons of each. The Gold Package is the next step after the Tiny Diamonds and helps us understand and prepare for the juvenile/adolescent stage that pops up right after the cute puppy stage ????. This session comes with three (3) 45-minute in-home private sessions, so there is plenty of time to practice and get follow up from the trainer on the things that might need some extra coaching!
Once we have this Gold level mastered, we can move forward to one of two options….more private training with our Platinum Package and working on more dog/dog distractions and public locations, or move to a group setting by attending our Tiny Diamonds Finishing School Group Class.

This hybrid session includes some in-home private training for both the owner and the dogs…we could not, with any amount of honesty, TRAIN OWNERS, NOT DOGS and offer to do the work for you. After all, the dogs would end up listening to us and not you. But we can offer the Gold Package (3 in-home sessions with you and the dog to teach you the skills) and then offer 3 private one on one walks with one of our trainers and your dog to work together on these skills. This is the perfect session for those who might be too busy to get all the work in without us trying to train your dog for you!
Once completed, we will offer additional walks at our alumni rate. A word of caution…if you are not going to put in the time with the dog, we will gain control of your dog on walks and you will find yourself in the same boat as when you first contacted us.
Total package cost: $695
Additional walking sessions or private sessions with you and your dog are $90.

Platinum Package: More Dogs and Public Spaces!
Finally, we have the Platinum Package…this package takes the Gold Package to the next level where we can take one more step toward the perfect pooch! After learning to pay attention in your home, walk nicely on leash and come when called, we now must tackle the big “D”…Distraction…and there is no better way to do that than outside in the real world. We bring out our dogs to distract your pooch in walking scenarios and public locations. The Platinum package adds two more 45-minute private in-home sessions from the Gold Package, for a total of 5. This package focuses on the key topics of distraction and attention in everyday environments. We use these sessions to work in the outside world – usually in your neighborhood, city parks and even dog friendly businesses – learning how to normalize distractions of the real world and get your pooch to learn calm attention can be fun.???? The sky is the limit (depending on how much homework you and your pooch do between sessions).
