Donations make this work possible, and help keep dogs in homes and out of shelters around the country.
There is never any expectation of a donation.

That being said, we have plenty of clients who want to support other people getting the same help they're getting. We are a nonprofit after all. Our organization survives on donations from people just like you.
So we've come up with some donation amounts as points of reference if you're wondering, "how much should I donate?"

We do our best to keep our operating costs as low as possible, but we employ a team of skilled professionals. Those professionals need to be paid a living wage, and we have to maintain systems that keep them employed. Total costs for every one-on-one session with a Free Dog Trainer averages about $50.
$100: Average Client Cost Per Month

About half of the people who book first appointments with Free Dog Trainers end up becoming regular clients. Half of our clients just want to meet with a trainer to see if they're on the right path, then check in with us as needed. Some clients meet with us once a month, others meet once a week. All things considered, the average cost of our work is about $100 per client per month.

Dog training is expensive! When you're running a small business alone, you have to cover tons of overhead costs like insurance, licensing fees, buying, renting, and/or maintaining a facility, health benefits, etc. All of that adds up quick! So for services comparable to what we offer, (one-on-one consultations with a certified trainer,) the average cost is around $250. Free Dog Trainers provides that for free!
