One-on-One
8 WEEK 1-ON-1 DOG TRAINING
For the owner with the time and drive to do the training themselves, with an experienced trainer coaching every step. Like piano lessons: your dog only improves if you practice. Top Dog's 1 on 1 training is an 8 week course and a great option for those who are willing to put in the time and do the weekly home work. It provides you a great opportunity to work and learn along side your dog and create a better bond. Just like the Top Dog board and train program, we adjust the training to fit you and your dog's needs in order to give you the best results possible.
