Does online dog training actually work?
It works when the trainer is coaching the owner, which is what Brett Endes does either way. His Zoom and telephone sessions cover the same curriculum as his in home training, and a single 90 minute session is $295. He has worked with clients across the country and worldwide.
How does an online dog training session actually work?
You join a live 90 minute video call and Brett Endes coaches you while you work your own dog in your own home. He watches your timing, your leash hand and the dog's response in real time and corrects them on the spot. You need a phone or laptop with a camera, a leash, and the room where the problem happens. You finish with a written plan of exactly what to practice.
Is online dog training as effective as in person?
For most problems, yes, because training is mostly owner coaching and a live call carries that fully. Puppy foundations, house manners, crate work, housebreaking, separation anxiety protocols, leash mechanics and obedience all coach well over video. Serious aggression and bite history cases deserve hands on evaluation when distance allows, and in the Los Angeles area Brett will recommend the in home workshop for those instead.
Do you offer online dog training outside California?
Yes. Brett Endes works with owners across the country and internationally by Zoom and telephone, with the same curriculum he uses in Los Angeles homes. A single 90 minute session is $295, six sessions are $1,495 and ten are $1,995, and every program includes lifetime phone, text and email support.
Can you help with separation anxiety over Zoom?
Separation anxiety is one of the better fits for remote work, because the protocol is built on place training and structured departures that you run daily in your own home between sessions. Brett watches your departures on camera, corrects the pieces that are feeding the panic, and adjusts the plan each session.
How I fix this
Live outside the Los Angeles area, or a past client who needs a quick refresher? Through Zoom and telephone, Brett can teach you to train your dog and solve behavior problems from anywhere. Sessions cover the same curriculum as in home training, because Brett trains the owner as much as the dog. Single sessions or multi session packages, lifetime support included. He has helped clients all over the country and worldwide.
