What people have asked about this business.

How much do you charge for puppy training?

Hi Madison, We provide two main options for training: in home lessons or board and train program. In home lessons are once a week for 4 weeks to start. We have trainers based in Ponce De Leon, DeFuniak, and Crestview. The price is dependent on location starting at $125 per lesson. Board and trains for a puppy are dependent on age. A board and train program is where your dog stays with our professional trainer and receives daily training. We would teach you through out and after what we are teaching your dog. This is $850 per week for 3 or 4 weeks depending on your goals and trainer assessment. If you have further questions, please feel free to reach out directly at (609) 560-1126. Best, Emily Owner ATSDT

Emily would get a 20/10 if I could. I am the owner of Vogelhaus German Shepherds and Emily does all of my puppy raising for my families who need/want additional training prior to taking the puppy home. She is also a consistent referral for anyone who contacts me needing training. she continues to provide above and beyond customer service, quality dog training and so much more. she provides consistent updates on how the pups are doing whether its obedience, socializing etc! there is no one else in this area that I would recommend.

Emily is a class act. We absolutely love her and cannot express enough how much she's helped our German shepherd. We've done several board and trains with her and never disappoints. She's accommodating, reliable and very responsive. When we first got our pup, I would text her non stop and she always responded. Even when she doesn't have our dog, she still checks in to see how she is doing. I wouldn't recommend anyone else!

Emily was there for me when I was in need of some guidance with my working line German shepherd puppy. She drove 2 hours to my house, trained for 2 hours & then had a 2 hour drive home. She’s responsive to text messages & super helpful with any questions. I’m boarding my dog with her in a week and I’m feeling less stressed knowing my dog will be in such good care. I 110% recommend Above the Standard dog training. Emily is a pleasure to work with & knowledgeable with what she does.
