looking for someone to tune up my dog for duck season

[SFDdelta1]

I love my dog but I just do not have time to tune him up before duck season. This time of year with football going on and running our landscape buisness I am out the door early and I am not back home before dark. So my dogs skills suffer from not getting used.

If anyone can make me a reasonable offer for training him for 3 months please let me know

Thanks

At least you can have a conversation while my dog is in the box in the back of the truck!

A trainer is going to run around $500/month.

Or more.

Yep the ones I have found around here run about 400 or more. Till season gets here and I have a guy that is I think it was 325 but he keeps your dog during winter months to train.

And they gonna want the first and last month up front.. So better get a grand out. If not better do it yourself or get ready for fido to break like hell and give you the bird, and I aint talking about a duck.....

so I'm wondering what would one think would be a reasonable price to board, feed, train and be responsible for someone elses dog for 3 months? I'd be aware of someone that would tell you they could "tune a dog up" for you, for less than the $400 or $500 per month. Chances are, you will be getting exactly what you pay for.

Some of us small guys that train on the side are cheaper. Here are my rates:
Boarding $10.00 per day
Training $350 per month (client provides heartworm prevention)
The problem is I only take 4 dogs and usually stay full.
