Long-Term Safety & Handling
Education
Why $15,000+
Ohio’s Avery’s Law significantly increased the potential consequences surrounding dangerous and vicious dog incidents. A future serious incident can place both the dog and the people handling it at substantial risk, including legal consequences and, in qualifying cases, court-ordered euthanasia.
Because of the increased safety, handling, time, and liability involved with dogs that have serious bite histories, these cases require significantly more preparation and individualized training than a standard Board & Train
Acceptance is case-by-case following an evaluation. Training cannot guarantee that future aggression or bites will never occur
