Private lessons will work on the issues the handler deems necessary and also provide a training option for people who have schedules that make a regular training class impossible. Private training may be a good starting place for very fearful dogs.

Individual training may also be scheduled for people who are afraid of dogs to give them skills to better cope with fear.

1/2 Hour In-Shelter Lesson = $53.50
1 Hour In-Shelter Lesson = $85.60
1 Hour In-Home Lesson = $139.10
