Client Love - Teddy
Before working with Leash and Learn every walk was frustrating and stressful for both Teddy and myself, full of lots of stops and starts. Now we both love going for walks and Teddy is raring to go! I feel so much more in tune with her and confident, it’s made me feel like a better dog mom. Thank you!

Training Packages & Prices
Step One - Initial Evaluation
Your initial evaluation lays the groundwork for all of your dog's training and any follow-up packages. We sit down together in your home, assess your dog's current behavior, set goals, and begin with the most pertinent training exercises.
3-5 days after your initial evaluation, you receive a customized training plan and an overview of the themes discussed during your appointment.
Step Two - Training Packages
To reach your goals, most training will require a package of follow-up lessons.
Leash and Learn understands that both time and money are valuable. That’s why we have developed two types of training programs. Our “basics” programs saves you money. Our “jumpstart” programs save you time.
