There aren’t enough stars to leave to express how wonderful we think Bo is, and his training methods. We were ready to give up our 14 month Flatcoated Retriever. Through his kind training methods we now have a another family member. Thanks Bo A BILLION stars! The Battista Family

Bo is amazing! He is full of information. He was able to work with our puppy who is leash reactive, and get her to happily meet another dog is less than 40 minutes! So awesome! I am so thankful I found him to help us, especially since other trainers told us they couldn't.

I have nothing but good things to say about Bo and his training. I was feeling very helpless with my dog Duke and his behavioral issues and am very glad I found his website online. Bo came to our house to work with our dog Duke. He asked tons of questions to understand what we wanted out of the training, and to understand Duke and what his needs were as well. By the fourth session I had seen a ton of improvement with Duke, and also feel more confident having the tools to help set him up for further success. I highly recommend contacting Bo for any of your dog training needs!

Bo was amazing with my shepherd and her reactive personality. He gave effective tips and tricks to help her stay calm in uncomfortable situations, along with written instructions we could refer back to! I would definitely recommend him to others who are having problems training their dog!

Bo is a great trainer. He has been working with Ryder and I have seen a improvement beyond belief. Ryder is 6 months old now and is doing great on his training with Bo. Bo is very good at explaining things to us and makes it very easy to understand. If you need help with your Puppy I highly recommend Bo to help you. He not only trains your Pup he also trains you to be a better dog owner. It is nice to have a well behaved dog. Thank you Bo for helping us with Ryder!

Frequently Asked Questions
This course is for dogs of all ages. Since dogs are not next to each other in a room, we don’t have to worry about the general chaos and inappropriate behaviors across age and size groups.
The price of the group class is for one dog. If you want another dog to participate as well, I want to treat it like a completely separate student, which means you need to purchase a separate enrollment for each dog.
That also means a separate training space, separate adult primary handler, and separate device to log on with. This way I can see how the dog is doing and give feedback appropriately. It also prevents the chaos of having dogs next to one another.
If you purchase an Extra-Support Add-On to supplement your training, however, there is simply an additional $5 charge for each dog in the household per private session. So the add-on is not for a single dog, but for all of the dogs.
If your dog is prone to wander off and check things out +and this is especially the case in multiple dog households), you might want to consider putting your dog on a leash attached to a basic flat collar or harness. Otherwise, you won’t need any special equipment for your dog for this class.
First, you contact me via the form. Please fill in the entire form.
Once I approve the application, I will send you an invoice to the email you gave me.The due date for the invoice will be 1–2 days after I send it. Please make sure to give me an email that you will check, otherwise you may miss the opportunity.
Once you have paid, I will enroll you in the class. Once the class has enough students to start, I will send you a welcome email with a link to the online classroom and your orientation videos so you can watch them before the first class starts.
I do not offer makeup sessions to students as part of the package.
I generally recommend purchasing the Extra-Support Add-On #1 or Extra-Support Add-On #2 so that you have one or two private sessions ready to go in case you need to use one as a makeup session. Otherwise, you can purchase make up private sessions at regular cost.
If you want to enroll in the extension, you will need to complete the basic portion of the course. That means that the primary handler needs to attend and participate in all of the classes, which includes any makeup classes you purchase.
