Private in your home training:
Sessions are typically an hour to an hour and a half but it can go longer depending on the situation.
Areas servicing: From Albany to Warrensburg and all surrounding areas.
*Many behavior issues are solved with one or two in home sessions. Contact with your concerns and what you are looking to accomplish and I will give you an estimate of how many sessions it may require.
Group Classes: Classes meet once per week the same day and time for 6 consecutive weeks. Beginner Obedience class covers leash walking (heel), sit, automatic sit, stay, down, come, housebreaking, nipping, jumping, chewing, stealing items, socialization, nutrition and everything in between.
Next Class start date:
Advanced Obedience (drop in class): $25 per class. Once your dog has completed Beginner Obedience you have the ability to come to advanced obedience whenever you'd like. If you miss a week that's okay because every dog is on a slightly different level and we have the ability to alter it based on what the specific dog needs to work on.
Seminars: What your dog should expect when you are expecting! This is a preparing for a new baby seminar. This seminar covers everything you need to know to prepare your dog for the arrival of a new baby. Remember dogs don't always understand what babies are, they see them differently than children. Make it as stress free as possible by preparing them properly ahead of time.
Next Seminar date: Contact if you are interested in attending a seminar!
More seminars coming soon...
Board and Train: Sometimes our lives are just so busy that an owner may find it easier to do board and train. I take your dog for a number of weeks and work on all the basic commands and teaching them the appropriate behaviors. Don't assume you are off the hook! The dog is not going to magically behave when they come back to you. Your job will then be to learn how to reinforce what has been taught and maintain it in your home. Board and train eliminates the learning phase of training so you don't have to spend all that time teaching the commands and then increasing distractions and all the other difficult parts in the beginning. This option is for the busy owner, an owner with mobility issues or if you would just prefer I take care of the hard part! This also includes two follow up lessons at no additional charge in the event you need some extra help implementing the new rules.
2 weeks of board and train: Includes training collar and leash. This is for on leash obedience and curbing other problem behaviors. Many dogs do very well with two weeks but occasionally 3 weeks is needed...
3 weeks of board and train: Includes training collar and leash. This is all on leash but would include introduction to off leash.
4 weeks of board and train: Includes training collar and leash. This covers on and off leash obedience with a remote collar. Your dog will learn all commands on leash and then graduate to reliability off leash with a remote collar. Remote collars are very safe when used properly and are an excellent tool to provide you peace of mind when your dog is off leash. *remote collar not included.
Pet Sitting (serving all of Saratoga County and Schenectady County, some Montgomery County and Warren County.)
*prices vary slightly depending on the situation and requests

*If strictly for potty and feeding, taking care of other house requests then no charge for additional dogs.
1 hour visit (includes letting out for bathroom, feeding, water, playtime, etc.)
(Would most likely include a walk considering the amount of time unless there was many pets in the house to take care of.)
Is your dog out of control on walks? I can train your dog during a pet sitting visit.
After just one private training session with me, I will teach you how to reinforce it and I will then reinforce the training every time we walk as well. In no time your dog will be walking beautifully even passing other dogs and people.
If you don't want to be involved with the training, for a lesser fee, I will teach your dog leash manners and then do the same reinforcement every time we walk during pet sitting visits.
Petsitting is not limited to just dogs - cats and other domestic animals are also included.
Regular boarding: Looking for a place to board your dog that will be quiet with no barking dogs causing stress? At my home in Galway, your dog will have a fenced in yard to go out as many times as they need to and a dog proof room to roam around or nap during the day. Dogs are crated at night for their safety. $25 per night. Additional dogs are half off.
Additional Services offered:
Looking to get a new dog? Whether you are looking for a puppy or adult dog, I will guide you to the dog that best suits your family. I will also go with you to the breeder or shelter to pick out the dog.
