Good questions
Before you begin.
How many lessons make a package?
Many are three to five lessons, but it varies. Ask what is included and what a lesson looks like.
Can I start before vaccines are finished?
Ask your veterinarian. Some trainers work at home first so your puppy stays safe while you wait.
What should I bring?
Soft treats, a flat collar or harness and a short leash. A trainer will advise on anything else.
Is a package a good deal?
It can be if the plan fits your needs. Check what the package includes and whether support between lessons is offered.
