Most of of our training is done one-on-one; with you/your family members, and your dog, in your own home. After an initial evaluation, we create a specialized training/behavior modification program for you and your dog, based on what you hope to achieve. We have several price levels and there are discounted multiple session packages available. Please call 412-766-7632 or email for exact pricing based on your needs. All paid sessions include phone and email help during our commitment and afterwards, for reasonable time frames. We also bring our own homemade all natural training treats to use at each session!
Train While You Work
We are also pleased to announce that we are now offering Train While You Work training for certain training/behavior needs. We can come to your home while you are at work or at school and spend a regular timed session, working on what you hope to accomplish. This is not for everyone and we do require a pre and a post training family session, but if you are just too busy to fit us in for a regular series of sessions, this may be an option for you. This is a good option for behaviors such as reactivity while walking or even loose leash walking training or any behavior that occurs between your dog and the outside world. This is not an appropriate option for behaviors such as housetraining or any interactions that occur between your dog and a member of your human household. Call or email for more details.
Drop-in Classes
They are back! The latest date for the drop in class is April 25th! Class time is still 2:30-3:30PM. We are always outside now in good weather, behind Larry's in the back parking lot. We hope you can join us!
All drop in classes are held at Larry's Laundromutt! Larry's is located on Ohio River Boulevard in Edgeworth, right next to Eat 'n Park. No aggressive or super reactive to other dogs permitted in class at this time. (We can help you with reactivity/aggression issues in a private lesson, please ask us.) We cover many things in the drop in classes, based on the needs of those attending. It is also appropriate if you just want to keep up with your dog's socialization.
Classes are conducted in a limited size area and restricted to 6 dogs and owners, so pre-registration is suggested to secure a spot for the Sunday class, but it is not a requirement. Email us for more info or simply sign up here. You can call Jeanie at Larry's Laundromutt at 412-534-4052 to register or Debby at 412-766-7632. Walk ins are welcome on Sundays but because of the limited class size, those who confirm ahead of time are given spacial preferences. Bring tasty soft treats and prepare to have fun and to tire your dog out. See you there!
The cost for each session is class is $15.00. You can pay by check or cash in person, or to pay by PayPal, click the button below. Be sure to include your name in the comments section so that we can cross-reference your payment with your registration form, should you complete the form.
