Frequently asked questions.

Where do you offer training?

I train in Jersey City, Hoboken, and Manhattan. Training outside of these areas may be subject to a $25/session travel fee.

What is Positive Reinforcement training?

Positive reinforcement training, or force-free training, means you reward the behaviors you want and you ignore and redirect undesired behaviors. This method is the most humane and scientifically proven way to train dogs (and many other species!).

What tools do you use?

I do not use tools like prong collars, e-collars, slip leads, choke collars, etc. If you currently use these tools and you’d like to transition your dog away from them, I’m happy to work with you.

How does a private session work?

Sessions occur in your home. Prepare several levels of treats, as well as a toy or chew to keep your dog occupied while we chat about their history and training plan. Detailed follow up notes are sent after every session and email support is available in between sessions.

Fill out New Client Form to schedule your session.

What kind of training do you do?

I work with clients on everything from puppy prep and basic obedience to behavior modification plans for anxious or reactive dogs.

What is your cancellation/refund policy?

Payment is required to reserve a session. If you cancel 48 hours or more before a session, you can reschedule at no extra charge. If you cancel within 48 hours of your session, you forfeit 50% of your session fee.
