Good questions
Before you begin.
Why does my dog act differently at home?
Dogs learn in context. A cue learned at the trainer's place has to be taught again in your kitchen, which is normal and fixable.
How many handoff sessions are typical?
One to three is common, though it varies. Ask how many are built into the price.
Do skills fade over time?
They can if nobody practices. A few minutes a day and an occasional refresher keep them sharp.
Is an obedience package the same as a stay?
No. A package is a series of lessons with you, while a stay is the trainer working with the dog directly.
