For Day School and Board and Trains

A custom payment plan for families that need training for their dog, but may not be able to afford the whole cost at once.

We would set up an individualized payment plan that works for the owner
Training will be scheduled to begin when enough payments have been made to total at least 50% of the final training cost
Payments will continue to be made during training and after until the final cost has been paid in full.
Training will cease if any payments are missed during training (excluding emergencies)
