Chris's house calls get pooches to listen and behave. He trains them, then teaches you how to repeat the commands and get the same results. The one-on-one time between Chris and your pup costs $50 per hour. Depending on the breed, one session with Chris, followed by lots of homework between you and Fido, will usually do it, but more challenging breeds may require up to five sessions with Chris. Free group refresher courses are offered on Fiesta Island on Saturdays.
