The Behavior Buddies trainer selects the training methods that work best with your canine’s personality, drive and temperament. However, there might be times that the behavior alters and you should contact the Behavior Buddies trainer for follow-up and possibly schedule a refresher training session.

Behavior Buddies trainers offer group and private training classes. Individual assessments and private training sessions are held in the client's home. Group classes are held in locations throughout Burbank, Glendale and Pasadena.

This depends on the dog’s individual personality, what issues we are working with and how much practice and consistency the pet parent is willing to devote to training.

Depending on the assessment by the Behavior Buddies trainer, the trainer will discuss the training plan with you and your level of involvement needed to modify behavior within the timeframe scoped out in game plan.

First we conduct an initial assessment by the Behavior Buddies trainer.  Then she can determine the number of sessions recommended to modify your canine’s behavior.  Class fees can be determined at that point with your personal Behavior Buddies trainer.

Call Carol Ann directly at 818-351-7227 or the Home Buddies Burbank main office line at 818-237-3940 for more detailed information and to schedule your initial assessment.

Each class varies, so please check with the trainer.  Some items needed for various classes are treat bags, a 6-foot leash, treats that can be broken into small, bite sized pieces, a towel, bed or mat, etc.

Puppies attending classes require at least their first round of vaccines and all age-appropriate boosters.  Obedience classes for older dogs require rabies, distemper and Bordetella vaccinations (Bordetella every 6 months)..  Please confirm all vaccination questions with the trainer as it may vary slightly by class and location.
