Dog training in Nokesville, Virginia

Training is not one-size-fits-all. Haus Juris builds programs around each dog’s age, behavior, history and the goals of the household it lives in — from a first-week puppy to a working protection dog.

How it works

Every program starts with an assessment

For new training clients, Haus Juris offers onsite consultations. Consultations allow the trainer to identify training goals, behavioral needs and class placement.

Consultations serve as an initial training session and may run from 1 – 2 hours depending on individual dog and handler needs.

1 hour $135
per 30 minutes $60

Private Lessons

Private lessons at Haus Juris allow for a training plan for the individual dog. Any topic can be covered from precision-perfect heeling to behavioral modification. The individuality of a private lesson helps many dogs learn faster. It also can be better for the dog because we can go at the dog’s pace and learning availability. Handlers can work through personal training goals & or behavioral issues (aggression, leash-pulling, jumping, heel work, etc.) & prepare the dogs for a transition to a group class environment.

AKC CGC Testing is also available to Private Lesson Clients,

Purchased as individual lessons, or as a package of 5.

FAQs

Training questions

How do we get started?

Call (703) 594-9925 or send a message through the contact form. We’ll ask about your dog and schedule an evaluation before recommending a program.

Foundation work can begin early, and much of it happens at home. Contact us with your puppy’s age and vaccination status and we’ll advise on timing.

Client to confirm minimum age and vaccination requirements.

That depends on your dog’s age, behavior and your goals — which is exactly what the evaluation is for. Most owners start with private lessons or Board & Train.

Yes. Even with Board & Train, dogs return to your household and your handling. Every program includes teaching you how to maintain the results.

It varies by dog and goal. We’ll give you an honest estimate after the evaluation rather than a fixed promise up front.

Client to supply current pricing for lessons, program packages and Board & Train.
