Good questions
Before you begin.
When is in-home training the better choice?
It suits door barking, jumping on guests, counter surfing and stair or elevator manners, all of which are hard to copy elsewhere.
Will a trainer come to my neighborhood?
That depends on the trainer. Ask about travel fees and parking before you book.
Who should be home?
Everyone who lives with the dog if possible, so the same rules apply every day.
Do I need a yard?
No. Lobbies, sidewalks and living rooms are fine places to practice.
