I was a little nervous about the cost of training, at first. But when I compared what I have learned to what my sister learned from her "pet store training classes", there isn't a doubt in my mind that you are worth every penny! I know for a fact that my sister's trainer (and I use that term loosely) has never emailed her to follow up on anything. You are very quick to respond to my questions and patient enough to deal with my insecurities. I truly appreciate that! I have also been told (by strangers) that she is the calmest rottweiler they've ever seen. What a wonderful friendship you have helped facilitate between Ginger and I. Thank you so very much!" My prices are not per hour they are per session or series. Our sessions could last up to two hours, sometimes longer. I am not a clock watcher. Time is taken that is needed at the moment. I offer alternative flexible payment schedules for private training. Please contact me directly by phone or e-mail for payment options. *Initial Private Behavior Consultation:First time clients $90 *plus travel fee depending on your location

CLIENT: “Hi Gina, Three weeks ago we adopted a new dog named Sarah, a one and a half year old brown dog who looks very similar to Henry, but who is very friendly and people-centric. We followed your advice about introducing them and keeping them separated when alone, slowly letting them get used to each other. We have no worries about leaving them alone now, but Henry is beginning to show some serious toy guarding issues...he tries to horde the toys, and growls at Sarah when she gets near. Sarah, being pretty fearless, still goes for them, and although this only caused an altercation once (that I've seen), I was wondering if you had any advice for us. Thanks Gina! Kristen” Gina: “I suggest keeping them separated when they are chewing on their toys and while you manage that, teach Henry Drop It/Trade ya...using the attached recipes... ALSO, keep toys up and away after they are done with them, do not leave toys lying around and keep them supervised. Spend alone time with Henry away from the other dog playing as before, keeping his normal routine before the new dog came... does this help? CLIENT: “We've started taking your advice and have already seen some results with Henry. Of course, they both seem to suddenly be having some house-training issues as well, and we're not sure which one is actually responsible, since it's happening in the middle of the night or early morning, in the bedroom while we're asleep. For the past two nights, we've woken up with one dog in the bed and one dog under it, with an accident on the floor or, as this morning, on Henry's bed. Both dogs went outside before bed, but Henry had bad diarrhea yesterday...we just have no idea what's going on. But it's gross :-( Any ideas? Kristen”. Gina: “I would consider taking them both to the vet (since you do not know which one it is) a possible bladder infection, intestinal or other health issues. My suggestion would be to rule out health problems first, and then we go from there”. CLIENT: “Yep ...turned out that Henry had an upper intestine thingy. This is why you're a professional” |
