Private Dog Training
In addition to our robust dog training classes, the East Bay SPCA also offers private training sessions, currently available online via Zoom and in-person at both locations. In these sessions, one of our trainers will observe and work closely with you and your dog and make recommendations for training and management plans.
Awaiting an opening in our Private Training or Calm, Cool, and Collected class, or want to get a head start on the course material? Our 40-minute "Dog Reactivity Basics" introductory webinar is perfect for you. Available in both English and Spanish for $35.
