Private Training

Private training offers a personalized, hands on approach to building skills and addressing behavior. Each session is tailored to your dog and your goals, with a strong focus on clear communication, practical application, and steady progress. Whether you're working on basic obedience, exploring dog sports, or developing detection skills, you’ll learn how to train, problem solve, and confidently navigate real life situations with your dog.

What to Expect

Private sessions are tailored to your dog, your goals, and your training environment. We’ll work at a pace that supports clear understanding and steady progress, with each session building on the last. Sessions may take place in your home, at Rotten Dog Sports Lodge or another structured training location, or in a variety of real world environments depending on your goals and the skills we’re developing.

Who It’s For

Private training is a great fit for those who want to be actively involved in the training process and gain a deeper understanding of their dog. Whether you're building foundational skills, refining existing behaviors, or improving communication and consistency, this approach helps you develop the skills needed to continue making progress. It’s also well suited for teams pursuing dog sports or detection work, where handler development plays a key role.
