Fees and Services

Due to financial considerations, TOP DOG has been forced to raise our program fee to $350.00, starting with the beginners class in January 2013. It’s important to understand what you’re getting for your fee. This is not a per-session fee; this covers four sessions: beginning, intermediate, and two advanced 12-week sessions. It also includes once a week classroom instruction, plus once a week in-home instruction. It includes in-home visits from our canine behaviorists as often as needed. It includes training materials for study at home. Factoring all expenditures associated with training a team all the way through to certification, conservatively it costs TOP DOG around $3000 per student, while we only charge a fraction of that cost. You will find that the TOP DOG program gives you tools to continue your training well into the future. If your needs change, you can teach a brand new skill because you have the expertise and the understanding gained from this program.
