New Jersey Towns covered by Personalized Dog Training Note: If you are out of my area, I may or may not be able to train your dog. My ability to do in-home training in towns NOT listed below is on a case-by-case basis depending on the driving distance and on how busy my schedule is. There will be a travel/gas expense charged for any out of area training. Due to high gas prices a travel/gas expense will also be charged for me to come to certain towns within my area. * means an additional $10 per lesson. If you are interested in outside lessons at my home in Chatsworth, please call me at 609-726-9054 or 609-351-2342 and we can discuss. Outside lessons are only offered when the weather is appropriate for teaching outside. If you have a friend who also has a dog that needs to be trained and you would like to share a semi-private lesson, please call me at one of the above numbers and we can discuss.

For persons out of my training area, I give "fee-charged" phone consultations for basic behavior and obedience issues. I cannot provide consultations for aggression or difficult behavior problems because in these cases it would be necessary to actually see and work with your dog. For phone consultation pricing and to schedule a phone consultation, call me at 609-726-9054. I do not give consultations via email because it's more difficult to effectively communicate in writing. Free phone consultations are provided to active clients. All clients who have taken at least five lessons receive free phone consultations for the life of their dog.
Training for Competition Events (or just for fun) I give lessons in New Jersey for AKC tracking and retriever hunt tests. The lessons can be at your place or mine (a travel/gas fee would pertain if I come to your location). I give beginning agility lessons or practice sessions in Chatsworth with high and broad jumps, open and closed tunnels, weave poles, tire jump, table, and see-saw. I give jumping lessons in Chatsworth using a jump chute to teach your dog to be a better jumper for agility or obedience. Furthermore, I can provide a practice obedience run-thru for those who have trouble making it to an obedience match or who need a person to act as a judge or to provide distractions and helpful advice. I can also provide practice run-thrus for the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test. Click here to contact me for further information about competition training.
Does your child take piano lessons, riding lessons, sports lessons? What about dog training lessons? Martha Windisch, Certified Pet Dog Trainer, enjoys teaching children about dog training. The lessons will be geared for basic obedience and fun activities such as tricks and games. This is perfect for the child in your family who is crazy about dogs or the child who dreams of being a veterinarian, groomer, trainer, or other pet professional. The lessons will most likely count towards one or several of the Scout badge requirements and would also compliment the 4-H program. If you provide your own dog, the dog must be in good health, have a good relationship with the child and have no serious behavior problems. If you don't have a dog, I can bring a friendly Golden Retriever for your child to work with. This is also a good way to make sure that your child understands about care and training prior to getting a dog. The lessons are given to one child at a time. A parent or guardian must be present nearby but does not necessarily have to attend the lesson. Dog training lessons for kids are an hour in length and are sold in blocks of three. These lessons are for children in fourth grade and older. The lessons will be geared to the age of the child. Click here to contact me for further information about dog training for kids.
The "Teach You to Train" program consists of in-home lessons where I teach you and your dog. You are required to practice between lessons and to use training commands in everyday life interactions. For these lessons, you can pay-by-the-lesson; thus they are affordable (to complete basic obedience, at least five lessons are recommended; for a simple behavior problem, less than five lessons may be appropriate; for a series of behavior problems or a more serious behavior problem, more lessons may be needed). For further savings, I offer a package of 6 pre-paid lessons. Click here to contact me for further information about the "Teach you to Train" program
"Training by the Trainer" Program: If you are extra busy, "Training by the Trainer" may be for you. Personalized Dog Training teaches YOU to train your dog - "Training by the Trainer" teaches you to train your dog with less initial time commitment. It's perfect if you don't have a lot of time to practice training commands with your dog. Using commands in everyday life interactions is required. "Training by the Trainer" is for basic obedience only, not for dogs with serious behavior problems. The "Training by the Trainer" program requires for you to pay for the set of lessons in advance. Here's how "Training by the Trainer" works: Instead of me giving you a series of private lessons to teach you to train your dog, with "Training by the Trainer" you are required to attend only 3 lessons, one 3 hour consultation lesson at the beginning, one 2 hour lesson in the middle, and one 3 hour lesson at the end. The trainer will come to your house for the remainder of the lessons and train your dog without your involvement. The program runs for 4 weeks. Your dog will receive between 3 and 5 hours of training per week, depending upon your dog and what we are working on. On week one you attend the first lesson - a 3 hour consultation and training lesson. Then the trainer comes and gives your dog two more lessons during the first week. On week two, the trainer comes and gives your dog two lessons and then you attend the third lesson with the trainer. On week three, the trainer comes and gives your dog three lessons. On week four, the trainer comes and gives your dog two lessons and then you attend the final overview lesson. You are responsible for using what you have learned in everyday life, but you do not have to do the initial practice sessions to teach your dog.

Private lessons outside at my place in Chatsworth, NJ or semi-private lessons at my place or yours: If you would like private lessons for your dog at a cost reduced from that of my private in-home lessons, you may want to travel to my location in Chatsworth, NJ for outside lessons. Outside lessons are limited by the season and the weather. If you have a friend or family member who also owns a dog that needs training, you may team up with them and share lesson costs - these are semi-private lessons. I can do semi-privates at my place or yours. Semi-private lessons are given on a case-by-case basis. For semi-private lessons, it is best if the dogs involved need similar training. It is important that the dogs are non-aggressive and get along with well each other. For semi-private lessons, training is focused on basic obedience, NOT serious behavior problems.
