I have had dogs most of my life and currently have an 8-month-old little Havanese who is a service dog. In training him myself I have learned a lot for sure. I've also developed games to keep him interested and occupied. My preference is to care for local smaller dogs who would enjoy interacting and have fun with my Leo!

FAQs for finding dog training near you in Sherman, CT

On average, dog training near you in Sherman, CT 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 Sherman, CT is an excellent opportunity to invest in the health and happiness of your furry best friend.

The rate at which you should visit a professional dog trainer near you in Sherman, CT depends on the individual needs of your pet and how quickly they progress through their training program.
