My mum runs a Kennel Club registered dog training club in the UK and we charge £10 on the first night (£7 yearly membership and £3 for the nights training), the courses are 10 weeks and its £3 a night, so the total for a 10 week beginners course is £37.
We are one of the cheapest clubs, but we know of some which charge up to £10 a night, and for private one-to-one training it will probably be a hell of a lot more.
I live in the UK and am an Ex Forces dog trainer and handler. I have helped out at a local training class with my dog GSD and I think they used to charge around £3 an hour. I did give up in theend as my training methods were different to the organiser. Now I just concentrate on my own dog and help freinds out with theres for nothing..
Mr Big L
I paid $109 to take my bullmastiff to classes at PetSmart.
I wish I would have spent the extra $30 and went to the local trainer down the road from me.
Our PetSmart class is PACKED…about 15 dogs for a 1 hour session (1 class/week for 8 weeks).
We get little or NO one on one help.
These are more like information classes for the owners rather than training your dog.
I am learning a lot, but it’s nothing that I couldn’t have read for myself online.
But, you get what you pay for.
