Additional private sessions: $120
Our private sessions are for existing students that need a bit of extra support. This might be due to reactivity, resource guarding, or other behavioural issues that require one-on-one work and homework between sessions.

Why we do a private assessment
Every dog who comes to UDHQ starts with a private assessment. This one-on-one session lets us get to know you and your dog as individuals, and make sure that you are on the right track with good habits, management, and behaviour at home.
This also means everyone going into group classes is on the same page — even experienced owners find the personalised advice invaluable.
Private assessments are also about safety. They give us time to understand your dog’s developmental stage, manners, and social skills so we can adapt our classes where needed. For example, a puppy with limited exposure to other dogs may begin in a safe space with extra support.
After the assessment, dogs join classes based on their developmental stage and individual needs, not just age. With a wide range of training options available, we’ll help you choose the best fit for you and your dog.
