Private Lessons
Individual or Multiple Training Sessions that guide you through specific problems while working towards any personal training goals you have. Each lesson is one hour long.
Say goodbye to unwanted behaviors and hello to a well-trained and obedient dog.
The first lesson is a combination of consultation and hands-on training. We’ll start by discussing your dog’s history, behavior, goals, and any specific concerns you have. This allows us to create a tailored training plan. From there, we jump into working with your dog and begin training right away.
A big part of the process is teaching you the owner how to handle your dog effectively and consistently. You’ll learn how to communicate clearly, use training tools correctly, and reinforce behaviors between lessons.
Follow-up sessions continue to build on progress and adjust the plan as your dog improves.
We offer both package options or pay-per-lesson. Package balance must be paid in full at the time of purchase. Custom packages can be made

Behavior Modification For Agressive Dogs
At Willow Creek Dog Training, we understand that aggression is a serious and complex behavior issue. Whether your dog has growled, snapped, lunged, or bitten, we offer private, one-on-one training tailored to help manage and modify aggressive behavior in a safe and controlled environment.
Who These Lessons Are For:
-
Dogs with a known bite history (human or animal)
-
Dogs showing aggression (bite attempts) toward people, dogs, or other animals
-
Dogs displaying fear-based or territorial aggression
-
Cases involving extreme resource guarding or protective behavior
-
Dogs that attack other animals or dogs in the house, and do not let go
What to Expect:
-
The first session is a behavioral consultation and assessment, where we review your dog’s full history, observe behavior, and identify triggers.
-
A custom behavior modification plan will be developed, focusing on safety, structure, and realistic goals.
-
Sessions are conducted in a way that prioritizes everyone’s safety—including the trainer, the dog, and your family.
Important Information:
-
Full disclosure is required. You must inform us of any and all aggressive incidents and known triggers before training begins.
-
Muzzle conditioning may be recommended or required depending on your dog’s history. We will provide you with step-by-step guidance if needed.
-
Dogs should always be secured (on leash, harness, or in a crate), and must remain safely restrained until directed otherwise.
-
We do not guarantee a “cure” for aggression, but we can help you manage, reduce, and understand your dog’s behavior with the right tools and consistency.
Liability & Safety Policy:
-
All clients must sign a behavioral liability waiver prior to beginning training.
-
Owners are responsible for their dog’s actions at all times, even during training sessions.
We reserve the right to refuse or refer cases based on safety concerns or undisclosed behavior.
At this time we are not accepting new students with a bite history.
