Private Lessons

Nancy Strouss is available for private lessons with you and your dog.

Private lessons are available locally in your home or at the training studio in Valley Cottage.  First time consultation lessons are usually more than an hour and in some cases home visits may last up to two hours.  Follow-up lessons are one hour.

Having Nancy work with you privately may be a more effective way to learn how to manage and solve behavior problems.  If you’re a first time dog owner, a private session will give you an opportunity to have all your questions answered and a better understanding of how to proceed towards your goals. Behaviors that can be worked on in an in-home setting are crate training, housebreaking, jumping, stealing, counter surfing, destructive behavior, nipping and mouthing, running out doors, excessive barking, pulling on the leash during walks and all kinds of other creative canine behaviors! In most cases, obedience training will be needed as a follow-up, to continue to learn how to communicate with your dog and control your dog’s behavior.  This can be done in your home or at the two Valley Cottage locations in a group class setting.

Private lessons are available on Friday evenings, Saturday and weekday afternoons.

Please contact Nancy for more information, fees and scheduling.
