I can’t speak for Ben as I am a customer but I will share that on his website and in person he provides the ability to do private in person sessions Best bet is to reach out directly for him to individualize your needs

We’ve had such an amazing experience with Outrider Dog Training, especially working with Ben Garson and Lexi Selden! They have been incredible in helping us train our German Shepherd puppy. Their knowledge, patience, and positive approach have made such a difference, and we’ve seen so much progress. Our puppy Zeus absolutely loves them and gets so excited for every class, he truly looks forward to his training sessions. We couldn’t recommend Ben and Lexi enough!

Ben is AMAZING! He has been working with my two dogs at our home and he truly has a talent for this. He even motivated me to foster!! Truly recommend them to anyone considering. Their prices are fair and they have great discounts with their packages! I am planning to enroll my two dogs in agility courses soon with Lexi as well! Thank you Ben and Lexi!

Our 2-1/2 year old pup recently attended a four-week adult training class, and after working with a few trainers, Ben's approach was the first one that really landed with us. Our dog is a rescue and has pretty severe anxiety, and the class gave us tools for getting him to mind, reducing his anxiety, and reducing his leash reactivity. Perhaps more importantly for me, Ben helped me understand that helping the pup with impulse control and to learn that he doesn't need to be "CEO" of our house is a more effective way to soothe his anxiety than scoop him and cuddle him.

Ben is amazing! He was able to diagnose the issues our dog was having immediately. He provided clear and excellent guidance that was easy to follow and was a tremendous help for our family. Our dog responded quickly to the changes we were able to implement because of Ben. There is a reason he came so highly recommended!

I went to a playgroup for young puppies and it was such a great experience for all the dogs and the owners! The folks running the dog training program seem to have a high level of skill, and they keep it fun for everyone. I will definitely be looking into their other offerings!!
