Good questions
Questions, answered.
What is in-home dog training?
A trainer visits your house and works on your dog's behavior where it happens: the door, kitchen, couch, yard and your own streets.
Who can take part in the lessons?
Everyone in your household. Practicing together keeps the cues and rules the same for your dog.
How much does in-home training cost?
Typical in-home visits run $100 to $200 per visit. Puppy packages are about $150 to $350 per lesson package, and prices vary by trainer and distance.
Will the same trainer work with us the whole time?
Yes, the aim is one trainer who stays with your dog and family from the first visit to the last.
Do you offer group classes?
No. Everything here is one-on-one training in your home.
Can the trainer help with barking or reactivity?
Yes, with manners and reactivity coaching done safely. Progress depends on your dog and on practice, and no result is guaranteed.
Which towns do home visits cover?
Knox County and nearby towns in Blount, Loudon, Anderson, Union, Jefferson and Sevier counties. Coverage varies by trainer, so list your town in the request.
