An initial consult is required which allows us to sit down and discuss the behaviors your dog is performing, their current lifestyle, previous training, and work toward finding the root cause of the behaviors. Together we formulate a program best suited to your and your canine partner to help everyone communicate and work together harmoniously. Initial consults are an hour long to give us time to cover your needs and get a start on our training. You will receive an email overview of topics discussed. 

After an initial consult, we can plan for future lessons to work towards your goals. Working in person allows for immediate feedback and guidance to set you and your pup up for success. Consults are an hour long.

Record a training session of up to 10 minutes (raw footage preferred, but edited is okay too!), upload to Youtube, Dropbox or Google Drive, then share it via email (Bonafide.bt@gmail.com). It's that simple! I'll review it, send it back with a voice-over and notes with time-stamps on what I'm seeing and what I'd recommend next for you and your horse.

Interested in learning more about clicker training? I offer lessons with my personal horses to help you learn the ropes and experience the joys of R+. Lessons are an hour long to allow time for discussion and planning. Riding is a possibility, but not a guarantee! This lesson program allows for creativity of students and provides a learning opportunity for those who don't have horses, don't feel confident in their R+ skillset, or are unable to utilize R+ for their horses.

Base cost is $60, discounted pricing available when scheduling multiple in advance.

Horses in Bonafide's training program are required to have an initial consult discussing training needs and problem behaviors to make sure we are the right fit for you. Upon arrival to the farm, your horse will be given some time to settle in and get to know me before any formal training begins, during this time all basic care will be provided and I will be working on integrating them into the "herd." Expect this process to take 3-4 weeks; in this time, some training basics may take place depending on the horse's comfort level.

After the settling in period, you will be sent training videos and notes weekly and guardians are encouraged to submerge themselves into the process, asking questions, visiting the farm to practice and have access to discounted lessons with your horse or my own! Horses will receive training 4-6x a week depending on the individual's horse's needs.

Base cost is $800 which includes all services and feeds within regular boarding.
