Introduction

Leadership Based Training Techniques Founded By a United States Marine K-9 Handler. No treats, no clickers, no shock collars, NO GIMMICKS! Real training, real results! We provide training from basic puppy obedience to therapy dog training. Unfortunately at this time time we do NOT provide Service Dog Training. Being a trainer at Always Faithful Dog Training allows me to help improve dogs’ and owners’ relationships every day. And seeing clients begin to understand their dog is priceless!

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

Our prices are determined by the number of lessons performed. We offer a 10% discount to active military, police, or fire department employees.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

We schedule an in-home assessment to understand the goals of our client with their dog. Once we complete the assessment we suggest how to approach the lessons and schedule.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

All trainers are trained by our Master dog trainer. Our Master dog trainer has trained over 6000 dogs and each trainer must train at least 15 dogs prior to training on their own. We also receive on going training and support from our Master trainer to guide our methods for any unfamiliar behavioral issues we need to address with our clients' dog.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

We love dogs and wanted to offer our clients a business that gives them professional help with their family pet. We are a franchise organization and that gives us access to a wealth of knowledge beyond our own dog training experience. With over 20 franchisees and our franchisor, we have access to dog trainers around the country who can help us get the right solutions for any dog obedience issue we come across.

What types of customers have you worked with?

We work with all dog owners who have dogs at least 8 weeks old. We train puppies and any age dog.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

We recently have been working with deaf dogs through hand signals to help keep them safe as they are outside walking with their families. It has been very fulfilling to see these dogs be able to understand how to be obedient.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Make sure you are comfortable with your trainer's methods and your role in the training. Our training methods do not use food, shock collars, or clickers and instead teach leadership methods.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

Make sure that you understand what type of training that you are looking for and what issues may be going on that need to be fixed or adjusted. Pricing will depend on what you are looking for. These tips may also help: 1. Additional costs for tools that will be used during training 2. Methods trainer will use during training 3. Level of hands on training the owner will receive (doing vs observing) 4. Follow up support between sessions 5. Convenience of scheduling sessions 6. Level of individualized support for their dog (private vs group)
