EVALUATION PROCESS

316 Edit.jpg

In order to begin the training process, we conduct an evaluation at our Williston Road Training Center. The evaluation is free of charge and allows us as trainers to get to know you and your dog before we meet for our first formal session. This process exists so that you can ask any questions you might have about the training process and the particular program you are interested in.

Evaluations typically last between 30-45 minutes

and, as previously mentioned, are of no charge to you.

If you are interested in training, please fill out the

submission form and email to training@playdogvt.com .

Dana & James

It is a tough draw in life to have a highly reactive ‘unwalkable’ dog, but thank goodness for Ross Gruber. Ross is an experienced and talented dog trainer, and he is dedicated to staying on top of advances in his field.  Ross is hard working and kind, and truly cares about the dogs and their owners.  He formulates strategies tailored to individual families so that the good behaviors can extend beyond the training sessions to everyday, real world scenarios. Thanks to Ross, our ‘unwalkable’ dog is now delightfully walkable and we’ve learned a host of other effective strategies to greatly improve her behavior around the house.  Ross is deeply invested in achieving the best possible behavioral outcome and it has been a pleasure working with him. Our family gives Ross our highest recommendation for all of your training needs!
