Baltimore, MD area." url: "https://www.dwdogtraining.com/services/" lang: "en" image: "https://www.dwdogtraining.com/og/services.jpg" --- # Every program, and every kind of behavior work Three ways to train, and the specialties and methods delivered through them. If a different one suits your dog better, I will say so. ## The three programs Prices are published because you deserve to know what this costs before you call. The full price list, from the evaluation to each package, is on the [dog training prices page](https://www.dwdogtraining.com/dog-training-prices/). Program 01 ### In-Home Private Lessons I train your dog where they are most comfortable, in your home. Starting at **$700** - 1 evaluation session - (4) 1-hour training sessions - Price varies according to dog's age - Lifetime trainer support after face-to-face - Payment plan available [In-Home Private Lessons details](https://www.dwdogtraining.com/in-home-private-lessons/) Program 02 ### Kick Start Training My own program, and a ladder rather than a one-off: five days of daily training in your home, then the steps that follow it. Starting at **$1,600** My own program - Kick Start I, $1,600: five daily 1-hour sessions in your home, your neighborhood, and local parks - Day six is YOUR lesson, on the behaviors you want addressed, plus a 2-week follow-up - All training equipment is included - Kick Start II, $700: more distraction, distance, and duration - Kick Start III, $300: off-leash freedom - For dogs over 6 months [Kick Start Training details](https://www.dwdogtraining.com/kick-start/) Program 03 ### Board and Train Advanced dog training, where I take your dog in for up to 3 weeks. Starting at **$3,600** In my home, not a kennel - Training is in my home, not a kennel - All training equipment is included - On-leash training or on-and-off-leash training are available [Board and Train details](https://www.dwdogtraining.com/board-and-train/) ## How we start A phone consultation works as an initial interview. We talk about what your dog is doing, what you want to change, and roughly how I would approach it through training. If the plan sounds right we can book a start date, or I may ask for an evaluation so I can look at your dog properly first. An evaluation means I come to your home and we talk face to face about your dog and your goals. It is the right call when the behavior is extreme or the living situation is unusual, because I want to see the behavior myself rather than hear it described. An evaluation is **$100**. That $100 rolls into your overall fee if you go ahead with training, and there is no obligation to go ahead. ## The behavior work These are problems, not separate packages. You pick the problem you are dealing with, and we solve it through one of the programs above: in-home privates, Kick Start, or board and train. Puppy training is the exception and stands on its own.

Delivered through a program above [E-Collar Training details](https://www.dwdogtraining.com/e-collar-training/) B-08 ### Socialization Calm exposure at a distance your dog can handle, so it learns to watch the world go by and recover.
