Puppy Start Right Package (In Home)

Welcome your new puppy with confidence! Our Puppy Start Right package is designed to give your furry family member the best possible beginning. This program is a series of six private, in-home lessons focused on the essential skills every puppy needs to succeed.


What You'll Learn:

In our one-on-one sessions, we'll tackle the most common puppy challenges and set a strong foundation for a lifetime of good behavior. We’ll cover:

  • House and Crate Training: Learn the most effective, stress-free methods to get your puppy comfortable with their crate and on a reliable potty schedule.
  • Puppy Nipping: Understand why puppies nip and how to redirect this behavior, so you can enjoy playtime without the painful nips and bites.
  • Puppy Socialization: Discover how to safely and positively expose your puppy to new people, places, and other dogs during their critical developmental window.
  • Basic Commands: Master essential commands like sit, stay, come, and leash walking to build communication and trust with your puppy.

Why Private In Home Training?

  • Personalized Attention: Every lesson is tailored to your puppy's unique personality and learning style.
  • Real-World Results: We train in the environment where the challenges happen—your home. This ensures the skills your puppy learns are immediately applicable to their daily life.
  • Convenience: We work around your schedule, making it easy to fit training into your busy life.

PAYMENTS & REFUNDS

Full payment within 24 hours after dates are scheduled is required to confirm your appointments.

Day Training 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 90 days.  After 90 days, on-going training contract will cease.  No refund will be issued for any lessons or classes remaining on contract.


GUARANTEE

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.
