I simply just love animals, most of the people in my life call me an animal whisperer. At one point I did work in an emergency vet clinic for about a year until I had my child and moved. I tend to find animals easier than people at times. I myself have two bully's who are well trained guard dogs.

FAQs for finding dog training near you in Seattle, WA

On average, dog training near you in Seattle, WA costs $21.93 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 Seattle, WA is an excellent opportunity to invest in the health and happiness of your furry best friend. A professional animal behavior specialist will be able to customize a training program tailored to you and your pup's lifestyle, from crate training to advanced commands.

The rate at which you should visit a professional dog trainer near you in Seattle, WA depends on the individual needs of your pet and how quickly they progress through their training program. Generally speaking, it is recommended that you visit your trainer at least once every few months or so in order to continue reinforcing their progress.
