When it comes to addressing complex behaviors like reactivity, aggression, or anxiety in dogs, a single training session is often not enough. At One Smart Dog, we believe in a multi-session approach to behavior modification because it offers a more effective, humane, and lasting solution for both you and your dog.

Why a Single Session Falls Short:

• Behavior is Complex: Reactivity, aggression, and anxiety are deeply rooted emotional responses. They aren't simple obedience issues that can be fixed with a quick command.
• Overwhelm and Stress: A single, long session can be overwhelming for a stressed or anxious dog, potentially worsening their behavior or creating negative associations with training.
• Lack of Practice: Real change happens in the real world, not just in a trainer's presence. A one-off session doesn't allow for the necessary time and practice for new behaviors to become habits.

The Power of a Multi-Session Program:

Our multi-session programs are designed to provide a comprehensive and supportive framework for true behavior change. Here's how they benefit you and your dog:

• Building a Strong Foundation: We take the time to truly understand your dog's unique triggers and emotional state. The first session focuses on foundational skills, management strategies, and creating a safe and calm environment for your dog.
• Gradual Exposure and Desensitization: Our phased approach allows us to introduce new challenges slowly and systematically. This gradual process, known as desensitization, is crucial for helping your dog build confidence and learn to cope with their triggers without feeling overwhelmed.
• Consistency is Key: A multi-session program ensures consistent practice and reinforcement. We work with you to establish a regular training routine, helping your dog generalize new skills and behaviors to different environments and situations.
• Problem-Solving and Support: As you progress, new challenges may arise. Our ongoing sessions provide the opportunity to address these issues in real time, with the guidance and support of a professional trainer. We are there to troubleshoot, celebrate successes, and adjust the plan as needed.
• Durable, Lasting Results: True behavior modification isn't a quick fix; it's a process of relearning and emotional healing. By committing to a multi-session approach, you're investing in a more durable and lasting change, giving your dog the skills and confidence to navigate the world with less fear and stress.

One Smart Dog, LLC reserves the right to terminate the training contract before or during its term if the trainer determines that a danger exists to the health and safety of the public, trainer, owner, or dog. Should the Trainer or Owner terminate the training contract at any time before completion, all fees are non-refundable and non-transferable.

Contracts for ongoing training are automatically terminated if we do not hear from the client for 90 days.  After 90 days, the ongoing training contract will cease.  No refund will be issued for any sessions remaining on the contract.

Our services are not guaranteed. Dog behavior is not static and can change over time due to developmental periods, aging, and health. Pet owners influence their dog’s behavior and must do the assigned training homework for optimal results.

Clients are responsible for providing the necessary materials needed for training. Including, but not limited to: treats, toys, leash, collar, harness, etc.

One Smart Dog uses reward-based methods that are backed by science to modify your dog's behavior.  Because a reward makes your dog more likely to repeat the behavior, positive reinforcement is one of your most powerful tools for shaping or changing your dog’s behavior.  The use of pain, fear, or intimidation may lead to fear or aggression.

All no-show sessions will be forfeited automatically. There is $25 no-show fee that must be paid after a missed appointment within 24 hours in order to continue training.
