Private Training

Evaluations usually last 1 to 1.5 hours, though Katie asks that you set aside two so there is no rush. These are very important as they give you and your pup(s) a chance to meet Katie and discuss all of your goals for your dog. Katie will then go over what it will take to reach your goals and give you an idea of how many sessions it may take to get there.

Want to accelerate your pup's training? Drop your pup off at Playful Pups and Katie will work one-on-one with your dog, reinforcing the cues and behaviors covered in your group class or private sessions. Why 30 minutes? 30 minutes is the ideal length for an intense training session, long enough for effective learning but short enough to prevent mental fatigue. By the end of the session, most pups are ready for a well-earned nap!
