Every successful training journey begins with a solid blueprint. Before we dive into hands-on training, we need to understand how your dog learns, what motivates them, and how your current home environment affects their behavior. In this initial deep-dive session, we lay the groundwork for long-term, real-world success.
What we will accomplish together:
Beginner Clicker Skills: We will work together on clicker timing and mechanics to set you up for the most success in marking wanted behaviors.
Canine Lifestyle Audit: We review your dog’s daily routine, diet, and physical exercise to pinpoint opportunities for mental enrichment.
Hands-on Assessment: We observe your dog's natural behavior and responses to baseline cues in a low-stress environment.
Immediate Management Plan: We implement instant, practical changes to stop unwanted behaviors from being practiced before our next lesson.
Custom Training Roadmap: You will receive a personalized, step-by-step game plan tailored to your specific goals and lifestyle.
Please note: This session is a prerequisite for all multi-lesson training packages. Available in-home across the Hudson Valley or via secure video consultation.
