FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
IS MY PET TOO OLD TO BE TRAINED?
No! No dog is ever too old to be trained. Although it may be harder to break older-dog habits, we can still make lots of progress with older dogs.
WHAT IS YOUR APPROACH TO PET TRAINING?
I train exclusively with positive reinforcement (R+) and in a fear-free manner (with treats & love!). All of my techniques are based on the latest research in the area of companion animal training. After the initial, free, consultation, I create individualized plans that I think will work best for you and your dog!
DO YOU OFFER CLASS TRAINING?
Not currently
PRIVATE VS. CLASS TRAINING
Private training creates an intimate setting for dogs, especially younger dogs in their first training session ever. With this, these classes tend to be a bit more expensive.
​
Class training is perfect for more mature dogs that have been introduced to other dogs or have already begun training. These classes are typically cheaper but can be a bit more overwhelming for your pet.
​
Currently, Trained by Steph only offers private class training. Contact us today to get started.
