I have experience training dogs with commands (sit, heel, stay). Raised a boxer dog so well-versed with high energy dogs and make sure I take the lead when walking them to properly exhaust their energy during the walk.

FAQs for finding dog training near you in Rio Linda, CA

On average, dog training near you in Rio Linda, CA costs $17.00 per hour. That being said, training your dog can range from group classes to individual sessions with a professional and the average cost will depend on various factors, such as where you live, the type of training you receive, home training or board and train, the intensity level and the method used.

Hiring a dog trainer near you in Rio Linda, CA is an excellent opportunity to invest in the health and happiness of your furry best friend.
