Training Packages:

For dogs requiring more than a few sessions, our training packages offer great value. Please note that package prices must be paid in full before or at the beginning of training after the initial session. Packages are valid for four months from the date of purchase and do not include the initial evaluation session. This rule ensures accountability throughout the training journey, providing the attention your dog needs. Cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice will be considered a full session (session lost).

"3 Pack" - Three 60 min Sessions for $340 (Save $35) This package is ideal for dogs that have some prior training or for individuals with previous experience in dog training. The sessions are packed with valuable information and tools to achieve your dog's training goals. Sessions are scheduled 1-2 weeks apart to allow for progress. Each session is followed up with an email and a phone call to provide continued support.
"5 Pack" - Five 60 min Sessions for $550 (Save $75) Perfect for puppies or dogs with no previous training experience, this package covers instilling good behaviors, socialization, proper handling techniques, and understanding your dog's body language. Training sessions are scheduled 1-2 weeks apart and include follow-up emails and phone calls. Each session lasts 60 minutes.
Intensive Training Program - Twelve Sessions for $1250 (Save $250) Designed for busy dog owners, this four-week program includes three training sessions per week. Our trainer will focus on teaching basic obedience, leash manners, dog socialization, and behavior modification. If you have a fearful, reactive, or hard-to-control dog, this program is ideal for you!

Just like people, no two dogs are the same, and they learn at different speeds. Please note that even with a four-week intensive program, you will need to put in effort to ensure newly learned behaviors become second nature while unwanted behaviors fade away.

If your dog requires further training after completing the program, we offer a sliding scale discount. Subsequent sessions will be priced at $70 per 60-minute session.

We understand that every dog deserves personalized attention. Contact Active Dogzz today to schedule your dog's training sessions and provide them with the best care they deserve.
