Hi! I was curious when your next puppy class starts? We have a 10 week old Boxer/Pit mix that I would love some help with. She is due for her 2nd round of shots in two weeks and then will be ready to attend. She was a rescue, taken away from her mother a little too soon but it would have been worse had she stayed. She is a big love who is already learning some basic commands but has some issues with biting (in play, never aggressive but is too much for my 2 Yorkies & 3 year old daughter) and I’m afraid she has some separation anxiety. Also I want LOTS of socialization with the breeds that she is.
Thank you!

Hi Melissa, I have some classes beginning in June, which may be the best training option for your situation. I also offer in home private lessons if that would be more convenient for you. My prices for private lessons begin at $55 per visit. The price could be more if your dog is extremely reactive, or if I have to travel out of the Redding/Anderson area. Please give me a call at (530) 356-8286 & we can see what may work for your situation.

Hi Jeff,
I see you have made a comment twice… Many apologies for not responding sooner to your questions. Even greater apology if you’ve been one of the unfortunate people I’ve neglected to return phone messages. Since the end of August, I have been without a training location. I am currently offering private lessons, one-on-one, in your home, or at an agreed upon location based upon your training needs.
Generally, private lessons begin at $55.00 per 1-hour session. Prices may be higher depending on if you’re are NOT in the general immediate Redding/Anderson area, or if you have multiple dogs, or dealing with some serious aggression/dog reactivity issues.
Puppy and beginning Obedience/manners class are typical $95 for a total of 6 class sessions, generally 1-hour long.
