HOW OUR CRATE TRAINING WORKS

1. Free Consultation

We begin with a completely free consultation to evaluate your dog’s current behavior, comfort level with the crate, and any existing challenges.

2. Personalized Crate Training Plan

Following the free consultation, we create a customized training plan designed to help your dog associate their crate with comfort, security, and relaxation. You’ll then have the option to select your preferred training program, which includes private one-on-one lessons, a 2-week board and train, or a 4-week board and train program.

3. Hands-On Training & Reinforcement

Our trainers work with your dog to reduce anxiety, eliminate whining, and reinforce positive crate behavior through structured training sessions.

4. Guaranteed Results

We guarantee that the goals you set at the beginning of the program will be achieved. If progress takes longer than expected, we will provide unlimited lessons at no additional cost until those goals are met.

FAQ

MOST COMMONLY ASKED QUESTION'S

How Much Does Your Training Cost?

At Total Dog! We provide our clients with custom-made training programs designed around your specific goals and your dog’s unique learning style. Our training programs vary from dog to dog in structure, layout, duration and cost.

That’s why we don’t offer a one program fits all solution. Instead we offer a free consultation so that we can meet with you and your dog to evaluate factors such as lifestyle, goals, age, temperament, breed and previous training. That way we can develop a custom-made training program that perfectly fits your goals and needs!

Is The Training Really Unlimited?

We offer a Total Dog! dog training package that includes unlimited lessons until your dog reaches the goals identified at the start of the program. Following the program’s completion, you’ll have the opportunity to extend your dog’s training to help them reach new goals.

Are There Breed Restrictions?

No, we don’t impose any breed restrictions. Total Dog! is an all-inclusive dog trainer that specializes in private dog-training for all kinds of dogs.

What’s The Best Age To Begin Training?

Right away! It’s true: you can teach an old dog new tricks and puppies are sponges for new information. While each dog has their own unique learning style and levels of maturity, as long as they’re awake, they’re learning.
At Total Dog!, we’re a truly all-inclusive dog training service. We work with dogs of all breeds and all ages.

Do You Offer In Home Dog Training?

Yes! With our Private Obedience Lessons you can choose the location.
