Good questions
Questions, answered.
What does puppy training generally cost near Charleston?
As general estimates, a puppy package is about $150 to $350, a private lesson about $75 to $150 and an in-home visit about $100 to $200. Trainers set their own prices.
Can I request a trainer through this site?
Not yet. There is no form, and nobody is taking requests here. The availability page explains the current status.
When can my puppy go out in public?
Ask your vet. Vaccine timing and local risk differ, so this guide does not give a schedule.
How do I handle Charleston's heat and humidity with a puppy?
Use early morning and evening for potty trips and play, test pavement and sand with your hand, and keep water and shade nearby.
Are dogs allowed on Charleston-area beaches?
It depends on the town and the season. Rules differ between beaches, so read each town's current posted rules before you go.
How do I stop a puppy from biting hands?
Pause the play for a moment when teeth touch skin, offer a chew toy and repeat consistently. Rest also helps an overtired puppy.
How do I choose between lessons and home visits?
If the problem happens mostly at home, such as crate fuss, a home visit fits. For leash skills, lessons elsewhere can work well.
