Why Choose Us?

We Use Modern, Proven Methods

We believe that training should be a positive experience for both you and your dog. That's why we use force-free, science-based methods that focus on positive reinforcement. This approach builds a strong bond and teaches your dog to make good choices because they want to, not because they're afraid of being punished. Our training is not only effective but also fun for your dog.


We Focus on You

Training a dog isn't just about the dog—it's about teaching you, the owner, how to communicate effectively. We don't just train your dog for you; we empower you to become an expert handler. Our sessions are designed to give you the skills and confidence you need to manage any situation, whether it's at home or out in the world.


We Have a Deep Understanding of Dog Behavior

Dog behavior can be complex and confusing. We have extensive experience and knowledge in understanding why dogs do what they do. This allows us to create personalized training plans that address the root cause of the behavior, not just the symptoms. Whether you're dealing with a new puppy or a dog with serious behavioral issues, we're here to help.

Ready to see the difference our training can make? We're excited to work with you and your dog.

TERMS & CONDITIONS


Full payment is required to confirm your appointments.

Private Lessons are non-refundable and non-transferrable. We do not offer refunds on unscheduled lessons. All sales and payments are final.


One Smart Dog, LLC reserves the right to terminate the training contract at any time before or during its term if 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 prior to completion, all fees are non-refundable and non-transferable.


Contracts for on-going training are automatically terminated if we do not hear from the client for a period of 30 days.  After 30 days, on-going training contract will cease.  No refund will be issued for any lessons or classes remaining on contract.


Client Cancellation/Rescheduling: Cancellations made less than 24 hours prior to the scheduled consultation may result in forfeiture of the session fee.


GUARANTEE (CODE OF ETHICS)

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.


TRAINING SUPPLIES

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



TRAINING METHODS

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.


PRIVATE TRAINING NO-SHOW

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.
