      link:  Required Forms

  • This link will ask you to book a 5 min appointment for which there is no cost (it’s the only way to fill out the forms!). I’ll go back and delete the appointment, just pick any day and time available it doesn’t matter.

    Email if you have any problems. Thanks!         

  • Appointments may be booked up to 12 hrs before hand or with my approval. Payment is due in full at the time of booking. I accept credit cards, atm cards, Apple Pay, Pay Pal and Peer to Peer Payment Apps (Zelle, Venmo, Cash App) which are always welcome as they don’t incur processing fees! Just call to arrange before booking.

  • Please Note: All appointments (Check-ups and Group Classes excluded) require that an initial consultation be booked and completed at least 24 hrs. before your scheduled training session.

  • If purchasing a package, please use the provided code to book remaining appointments marked "...for use with packages" rather than a regular one-time appointment that will have a fee.

Cancellation policies/Late Arrivals

  • Appointments may be canceled or rescheduled up to 24 hrs in advance without loss of payment (less 3% to cover processing fees).

  • Cancellations <24 hrs and no call/no shows will forfeit entire prepayment.

  • Cancellations approved by both parties due to inclement weather or other circumstances will incur no fee and will be rescheduled at the earliest convenience.

  • Cancellations for Group Classes cannot be refunded or made up due to lack of room availability.

  • Late arrivals within reason are allowed - we live in NYC right? However, the session must end at the same time due to lack of room availability.

  • Late arrivals for outdoor group classes may have to find their own way to the class location. Try to call ahead if running late or to find us.

  • Weather-related cancellations — Classes will still be held under very light rain conditions, with heavy rain, every effort will be made to reschedule during the same week or an additional week will be added to the end of the series. Please plan for at least one weather-related cancelation.

Aggressive Dogs

  • All dogs must be friendly to be in group classes.

  • Please let me know if there is any history of aggression to humans or other dogs before class begins because there may be more appropriate training possibilities I can offer.

  • Aggressive, overly loud dogs will be asked to attend private training sessions rather than group classes.

  • All dogs can be aggressive, it’s absolutely fine, let’s work together!
