Good questions
Before you begin.
How can I compare two packages?
Line up the skills, the lesson count and the total price. A lower total with fewer lessons may not be cheaper.
Is a pre-paid package risky?
It can be if the terms are vague. Get the refund and rescheduling rules in writing.
Which methods are green flags?
Reward-based teaching, gradual difficulty and a trainer who can describe each step.
How do I tell the training is working?
Your dog performs the cue in a place that is a little harder each week, and you can do it too.
