Terms of service.

Training Method:
I am familiar with Making Pawgress' training methods and tools used (slip leashes, prong collars, dog crate, etc.). I understand that the use of these training methods and tools is designed to provide clear communication and effective training for my dog. I agree that to ensure the best possible outcome for my dog’s training, I should follow the training protocols and guidelines provided by Making Pawgress.

Refund & Cancellation Policy:
All fees paid for training services are non-refundable. Training sessions may be cancelled or rescheduled up to 48 hours prior to the scheduled session time without penalty. Cancellations or rescheduling requests made less than 48 hours before the scheduled session will not be eligible for rescheduling or credit. Any fees paid for cancelled sessions (with at least 48 hours notice) can be applied as a credit toward future services with Making Pawgress.

Location and Travel:
Making Pawgress is located in Carlsbad, California. Making Pawgress reserves the right to decline or charge additional fees for any in person session that is located more than 15 miles away from Carlsbad.

Photo/Video Release:
I hereby grant Making Pawgress the irrevocable right and permission to use, reproduce, edit, publish, distribute, and/or otherwise utilize photographs, videos, audio recordings, and other media that include my likeness and/or my dog’s likeness. These media may be used for purposes such as marketing, advertising, promotional materials, social media content, website content, and educational purposes without any further notice or compensation to me. I hereby release Making Pawgress from any and all liability resulting from such use, reproduction, distribution, and publication.

Waiver and Release of Liability:
I understand that participation in Making Pawgress' services is voluntary. Despite all reasonable precautions, dogs are not always predictable and accidents and unforeseen events may occur. I hereby waive and release Making Pawgress, its owner and staff including specifically, but without limitation, any injury, illness, or damage resulting from the action of any dog.

Commitment to Continued Training:
I acknowledge that training sessions provided by Making Pawgress are an essential part of the training process, but continued work is required once my dog and I return home. I understand that the skills and behaviors my dog learns during training sessions must be reinforced and practiced regularly at home. I will dedicate time and effort to continue working with my dog, utilizing the techniques and methods taught during the training sessions.
