PRE-ADOPTION SERVICES: Ruff Customers strongly supports the adoption of "slightly used"
dogs and puppies from metro area shelters and rescue organizations. Therefore, we offer help in choosing your new best friend. For a low rate of $50 for a two hour consultation
we will accompany you the shelter of your choice to help you make sure the pet you've selected is a good fit for your family.
Ruff Customers also works with dogs who aren't really suited for the stress of being in a group of dogs or puppies. Our trainers offer
behavior modification for the less social pooches among us. We specialize in teaching dogs with aggression and fear issues.
PRIVATE BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION SESSIONS
($85 - $100/hour, packages available) are geared toward your
pup's individual needs. The first step is an initial evaluation: you complete a detailed behavioral history
questionnaire, we study the provided information and meet your dog to assess individual needs. An initial
evaluation lasts one and a half to two hours and costs $130 After that initial meeting, our trainer
will discuss the evaluation and indicate how many training sessions she recommends. We specialize in
Constructional Aggression Treatment (C.A.T.) and desensitization and counter-conditioning techniques for
fear and aggression modification. We also offer discounts for multiple lesson packages.

DAY TRAINING ($250 per week, multi-week packages available)
is perfectly suited for busy people who have difficult schedules or prefer to work with a more finished product. No time for training? Let
our professional trainer do it for you! With DAY TRAINING we train your dog while you're at work
or relaxing while we work with your pooch, then we transfer the leash to you with a virtual "User's Manual" on how to maintain good manners. Ruff Customers will create customized
training plan addressing your needs and desires for your pup. Our goals are to relieve your frustration with your dog's behavior and to help you build a wonderful relationship.
We can teach in several sessions what it might take you months to learn in group classes. Your dog benefits by learning from a skilled and experienced dog trainer, and we reduce your
frustration by eliminating the need for you to learn a whole new profession! All DAY TRAINING programs include unlimited email support and a follow-up visit within six months of beginning
training. Training costs are $250 per week, which includes three one (1) hour-long sessions with your dog, plus a 30 minute transfer session each week with you.
DAY TRAINING is particularly suited to teaching your dog manners such as Polite Leash Walking, Proper Door Greetings, Wait, Stay, Leave It, Drop It, Recall, and many more.
And finally, Ruff Customers is fully insured for your security. Let us use our expertise to help you.
