On average, dog training near you in Swansea, MA costs $18.50 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 Swansea, MA is an excellent opportunity to invest in the health and happiness of your furry best friend.
