Scheduling and Payments

Theo's Doggos uses a scheduling platform called Time to Pet (TTP) where you'll have full control of your schedule, be able to view invoices anytime, and instantly communicate with me, Theo. Billing is done through Stripe via TTP and all payments are required up front prior to service. Please be aware there's a strict "no refunds" policy on all services and programs.

How old does my puppy have to qualify for a program?

​

Short answer, as soon as you get them we can start training! Puppies start learning as soon as they're born, however, ethical dog breeders should cover all basic training with the puppies they adopt out to at least a certain degree. Afterwards, puppies are ready to start basic training around 8-16 weeks of age. Please note that they should NEVER be taken to any public places especially dog parks where they may come in contact with various potential diseases at such a young age until they have their basic shots from a vet. You also want to have basic communication cues down so you and your pup can confidently navigate various potentially scary scenarios you may come across together while out in the world. Preventing bad experiences like dog park attacks (sadly WAY more common than you'd think), dog walking mishaps, or even bringing your puppy to an overwhelming environment is KEY to nurturing a calm, confident, and adept doggo!

Can my dog ever learn even after years of ingrained bad habits?​

ABSOLUTELY! All dogs have a starting point-even if they've been this way their whole life, there's always something we could teach, provide, manage, and improve upon. Sure it may take a little longer if the behaviors are deeply ingrained, and yes, there is a possibility their behavior may not change exactly the way you want it to, however, with work, time, patience, and understanding, we can get to the root of your dog's issues and figure them out one at a time-as a team! Either way, through personalized approaches and focusing on improving the way in which your dog handles their day to day challenges is top priority. Providing alternate positive outlets and choices while advocating for them will help!

What if my pet has special needs?

​

If your dog has any special needs your services will happily be customized to fit their physical and mental needs no matter the disability or limitations your pup may be living with. What I do is find a path that's doable for you and your pup regardless of how limited their capabilities may be. Simply adding enrichment and management plans may be all your dog needs to improve their quality of life!

Cancellation Policy

​

The cancellation policy is full cost of the single service price $199 if our meeting is cancelled within 48hrs of the appointment-you're essentially paying "a la carte" to make up for the missed class which will be added as a future make-up session to your account. This is to help protect me financially and to prioritize availability for other parents in need of last minute services.

Are you licensed/insured?

Of course! All the legal paperwork is covered on my end so as to make sure you can depend on my support no matter what happens during sessions! Unpredictable events are unforeseeable so I'm always prepared to handle any situation that may arise to better serve you and your pups best interests-so rest assured that you're in good hands!​
