Dog Training and Behavior

Nirvana Tails Training

All services begin with an initial consultation. When you schedule your initial consultation, you’ll receive a form to detail your pet’s history so our time together will be as beneficial as possible.

During the 90-minute session we’ll review a training  and behavior plan based on your dog and your individual situation. At the end of the session, I’ll outline which service package will best meet your needs to achieve your goals.

​Ongoing, individualized training will be tailored specifically for your pet. All sessions after the initial consultation will be 60 minutes.

​Training Options

  • Remote training via video call, available anywhere.
  • Private in-home training and behavior consultations available. One on one coaching involves working together with you and your dog. In-person sessions are available in Riverdale and in the west side of Manhattan north of 79th St.
  • Note: all initial consultations are virtual unless there are special circumstances, or if you wish to schedule a Puppy Headstart. If you feel that you need an in-person initial, please let us know right away so we can look at your situation. In-person initials are 90 minutes and cost $340.00

​Jackie and I wanted to say HUGE THANK YOU.  This training has been a life saver.  If we didn’t start the good behavior training early I don’t know if we would have survived this first week.  I’m so so so relieved and Morgan seems relieved too to be honest.

​You genuinely may have saved and kept a family not only together but happily under one roof in the most stressful times.  We can actually enjoy these precious moment without worrying excessively about Morgan.
