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 a 15-minute refresher training session.

Behavior Buddies trainers offer group and private training classes. Training classes are held at Camp Bow Wows, parks and at client’s homes.

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 a free assessment by the Behavior Buddies trainer.  Then they 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.

Check with your local Camp or Home Buddies for a Bow Wow Behavior Buddies trainer in your area. If you do not have a local Camp or Home Buddies, contact the corporate office, 877-700-BARK, for the closest Behavior Buddies trainer to assist you and your pup with behavior modification.

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) especially if the class is being held at the Camp location.  Please confirm all vaccination questions with the trainer as it may vary slightly by class and location.
