SUITABILITY

We have a number of training options available here at Alpha. The option you choose is dependant on what best suits your own schedule and learning preferences. Some reasons to choose this course are:

  • Learning in a relatively small group - between 2-10 people

  • Receive intensive training over a short period of time. Get all the information and skills you need to continue training at home

  • Ideal for owners that live too far away from Alpha’s services to attend weekly classes. Stay somewhere local for a few days whilst your undertake the course.

  • If your availability doesn’t suit our weekly classes schedule, then this is a great alternative!

Most (nearly all) dogs are suitable for this course, regardless of what behaviours you are trying to fix. Some cases of high end aggression may be better suited to private lessons and rehabilitation classes.

COURSE COST: $990
