Private Dog Training

No time for group classes? Not a problem! With in-home training, the professional trainer comes to you!

We all want to live with a well-trained dog, but not everyone has the time to train their dog. That's why we offer our Magic Wand service where the expert trains your dog for you! Of course, there's no such thing as magic, but our Magic Wand service is the next best thing!

We offer a customized and concentrated training service designed for busy owners requiring fast results. We accomplish in a few short sessions what could take months trying to train on your own. We train your dog, in your home, while you are at work. You don't even need to be there. You'll see results fast! What could be easier?

You won't need to make time in your busy schedule to take classes, work with a trainer, or spend time on “homework”. With our Magic Wand service, you'll see better behaviors after the very first session. Your dog learns from a skilled and experienced professional and is trained in his home and neighborhood, where his behavior is most important. And, we'll show you how easy it is to keep those new behaviors reliable.

Magic Wand is perfect for common behavior issues such as jumping, pulling on the leash, not coming when called, darting out of doorways, rude and pushy behaviors, obedience issues, food and toy guarding and leash aggression.

How does it work?
We schedule an initial consult at your home to discuss the problem behaviors and prioritize them according to your training goals. The number of additional sessions needed to meet your training goals is determined at that point. Dogs improve quickly with frequent training sessions, and we will set up multiple hour-long training sessions per week for fast improvement. We start training at the very first consult session. You'll quickly see how effective our methods are. After our first consult session, we train your dog while you are at work or while you are at home, and you don't have to lift a finger!

What is the cost?
The initial consult is $95 and takes 1-1/4 – 1 1/2 hours. The hourly rate for training sessions is $75/hour with discounted rates for multiple training sessions. Our Magic Wand service will quickly give you the dog of your dreams!

Private, in-home sessions allow you to schedule appointments at a time convenient to you. We focus on the specific behaviors you want to address, in your home where you and your dog are most relaxed and comfortable. You learn why your dog is behaving in a certain way, and you gain the skills to easily change your dog's behavior in a lasting manner.

A training plan is developed to meet your training goals, including short-term and long term solutions. At the end of each in-home session, we provide written guidelines covering the exercises to practice before the next session. You will see rapid progress with individualized instruction in the environment where the problem behavior is happening.

In-Home Sessions are ideally suited for:

housetraining problems barking destructive chewing biting (mouthing too hard/nipping) jumping up digging pulling on leash

obedience problems excessive or hyper energy digging stealing food darting out of doors submissive urinating not coming when called

How does it work?

We will schedule an initial consult at your home where we identify the behaviors that you want to change. We prioritize the problem behaviors and create a training program to change them.

You learn what is maintaining your dog's bad behavior and what needs to be done to change it, both during sessions and between sessions. We start training at the very first session and you'll see your dog quickly learn better manners. New Levels Dog Training will come to your home for subsequent private dog training sessions and work with you and your dog until the training is complete.

Fears, separation anxiety and aggression in our companion dogs can create serious problems within the home and the community. New Levels Dog Training offers personalized, private in-home behavior consultations and training for severe behavioral problems. Many, if not most dogs with serious behavior problems can be helped with an in-depth behavior modification program designed to successfully resolve the issue.

Serious behavior problems require the help of a qualified professional. Our education, experience and certifications allow us to accurately evaluate the problem and create a well-designed behavior modification program that will lead to a successful resolution of the problem.

Because the underlying nature of these types of serious problems is complex, it is critical to understand the many factors surrounding and triggering them. In our initial consult at your home, we take a detailed behavioral history, observe and evaluate your dog and identify the problems. You learn what is maintaining your dog's behavior and what steps to take to resolve the behavior problem. A detailed behavior modification plan will be discussed and the number of follow-up sessions will be determined based on our evaluation.

What's the cost?

Behavior consults for issues such as fears, phobias, resource/possession guarding, separation anxiety and aggression are $165 and take 1 ½ - 2 hours. Additional follow up sessions are $75 and are scheduled as needed.
