Dog Health Questions: How much would you be willing to pay?

I know the economy sucks right now and everyone is tight on money, and I was just curious about dog training prices. Suppose you were interested in getting your dog trained (obedience), how much would you be willing to pay for in home training?? Would you want to pay by the hour, per visit, etc? If so please specify which one and how much?

Recommended Answer:
Depends on the quality of the trainer. If this is an excellent trainer with a good track record, I'd pay $50-70/hr for specialized competition obedience work. For just home problen solving (which I really don't need much) most likely $25-30/hr depending again on the quality of the trainer and the problem that needs to be solved.

I charge $25-30/hr for in home basic obedience and problem solving. that seems to be the going rate in this community.

• Per hour: 8-13$
  Per visit: 20-45$


• just watch the dog whisper


• Personally I would train the dog myself, the only reason I would 'GOTO' dog training is to socialise the dog with other dogs, so I wouldn't ever request a home visit. Dog training lessons range from £1-£6 and home visits are anywhere between £10 upwards depending what the issue is.


• My friend is a dog trainer with his own facility, if he trains the dog for 2 weeks at his facility he charges $1500.00 for the two weeks but that includes boarding the dog. There's a dog training facility that offers obedience classes for $125.00 for six months. I'd pay that.
