More Information
If you plan to move forward with a training package, best results will be achieved by building training momentum through weekly sessions. If scheduling permits, its ideal to begin training the week following the consultation.
Recommendations made during consultation cannot replace the benefit of formal weekly sessions.The consultation allows client and trainer to discuss dog’s general behavior patterns, environment, daily routine, training goals and to outline a management and training plan.
If your dog has a bite history with people provide the following information by email detailing up to 3 bites incidents. Information should include approximate date of bite, name of person that was bitten and relationship to dog (ie. do they see dog on daily, weekly, monthly basis), environment (ie. by front door, on couch in living room), context (ie. person say hello, grabbing collar.. ) severity of bite (ie. no mark, shallow puncture, deep puncture, multiple bite wounds), any other variables that might have influenced this situation (le. dog was sick, construction in or near house, family member visiting).
In every household there should be a single person that is committed to being the “primary trainer.” This person should be the one to fill out the assessment form, meet for the consultation and conduct the weekly sessions. This will ensure consistency in training, and make sure that information doesn’t fall through the cracks.
I do not recommend having kids under the age of 10 at the consultation. There is a lot of information discussed, and your full focus will help you get the most out of this time.
In order to secure your consultation appointment time, payment must be received in advance. Payments can be made through Venmo or Paypal.
Encourage clients to browse through Legends Dog Training’s YouTube channel and training blog prior to meeting for the consultation. These videos and articles showcase the training methodology and/or results achieved through Legends’ training programs.
