Puppy Dog Luv, LLC

You time is precious, so: •I train in Boca Raton, Delray Bch & Boynton Bch! • Private Lessons only. My style is unique; (force-free, non-dominant) positive reinforcement ONLY & is successful because it's all about priorities: Your pup is #1 always & in all ways when we train. Tell me what you want for your dog & that's exactly what your dog will achieve. Training begins at the very 1st lesson. I encourage everyone who hires me to chat before they either get a puppy or just after the puppy comes home, to make sure they know what it will mean to their busy lives. (For example, they'll need to start potty training asap with a Puppy Training Package. Puppies must be housebroken first, so they "earn" the privilege of roaming their human's home freely.) I can help with what you'll need so you're ready from day one. Rescues, may need a different course, with rehabbing + obedience & they may already be housebroken. Pups are sentient beings whose hearts, minds & memories need loving care as we train; some may need to heal from their past experiences. Each scenario calls for a conversation about your life as it is & how it will change with a new family member. Because it reaps the best & fastest results, I train at your home (no boarding.)* That's where your pup's "safe haven" is, where they spend most of their time & where they have the least distractions. (*Except if someone smokes or vapes nicotine/marajuana there or has a cat in the room. I'm very allergic, so I can't.) I've trained pups & their people for 30+ yrs. with consistent success. Once hired, I'm available by text or call, at no charge (morning, afternoon & night) for questions, emergencies, advice, research on best doggy day care, boarding, vets, ER hospitals, foods, treats & supplements. When it's neuter/spay day, if you want my support, I'll be there with you - no charge. I create courses with individualized lesson plans to assure success for you & your pup. I graduate students, never abandon them. Pet parents should be able to make at least an hour/week commitment to their puppy & 10 mins./day for practice inbetween lessons to insure success. My clients get the results they request in reasonable amounts of time -and for reasonable cost - (prices "starting"@ $800 for a 10 lesson course paid up front) but they're not locked into a set schedule regarding day/time slots from lesson to lesson; I flex my schedule to meet their's if given 24 hour notice. Payments accepted: CASH paid up front or CREDIT CARD using the "Square" banking device - they add a small processing fee - also paid up front. (Note: All training packages are non-refundable.) You'll have a signed, legally enforceable, contract at the start of the first lesson, so that you're protected & feel secure that your pup will receive the entire course. (The 10 lesson course is best if completed in 10 wks, but 6 mths maximum.) Two requests: •Please, don't ask me to "audition" for free or for a 1 lesson charge - no can do. There are no "pay by the lesson" arrangements. •Lesson appt. changes need to be within 24 hrs. notice. ☆IMPORTANT NOTE☆ I also train legitimate therapy & service dogs; I work with an attorney who is knowledgeable in the Federal ADA & Florida laws. The length of time & costs are different from the "starting" scenario above. All documents needed for POAs, HOAs & COAs can & will be provided at no charge. $$ DISCOUNT ALERT $$ If you want more than 1 pup in your home trained, you will get a reduced course rate. If you've adopted your puppy from a rescue, there'll be a discount, too. Keep an eye on holiday discounts, also. Because of my experience & education, clients get what they pay for - training, done by a professional, 1-on-1 at their homes, that will last their pup's lifetime (LIFETIME FREE support via calls and/or texts). How does it work? Well imagine your pup's training like a 3-layer cake: • The top layer will result in extraordinary manners you'll be proud of & strangers will compliment you & your pup on; a strong, mutual trust & respect between you & your pup - a deep, loving bond between you two, as well. All commands (beginner, intermediate & advanced) will be taught. • The middle layer will result in techniques for using learned & memorized vocal+hand cues in combinations to prevent and/or extinguish patterns that don't serve your dog's life or yours. Problems will be avoided, nipped in the bud or patterns reversed. • The bottom layer will result in a calm, centered, "Zen" pup who can control his/her own impulses as a result of the distinct style of my training from lesson #1 through graduation. Your pup will take & pass the AKC Canine Good Citizen test, in a public environment with the distraction of other people & pups. So... whether your traumatized rescue needs rehabbing/the rebuilding of trust in humans + good manners or your new puppy will need to be trained to be your beloved family member, or maybe even your service dog eventually, the course curriculum of training, lesson plans & corrections will be individually designed to work for both your pup's & your goals.
