Training Terms and Conditions for Online and In-Person Clients

Training Terms, Conditions, and Contract: Payment and Cancelations The Client agrees to pay $175.00 for the first session and $75.00 for follow up sessions with the Trainer. The Trainer will provide professional training through online or in-person sessions with the animal and the Client including a behavior modification plan, environmental modification plans, suggestions, and tips to help the Client to interact with the animal in order to produce the best results in behavior. Cancelation/Scheduling All sales are final, and the client cannot request a refund. An account credit will be issued to be used for other services or items. Account credits do not expire and can be used for anything in exchange. Sessions can be rescheduled, but there will be a $50.00 fee to do so if within 24 hours of your appointment. We understand that unplanned events come up that overrule importance to training and our sessions, so we try to work with clients as much as possible when these situations arise. If you do not show up to the session, it will be considered a cancelled session, and you will need to pay the $50.00 fee. The Trainer does everything they reasonably can to provide a healthy and safe training environment. The training regime is designed to help ensure a healthy and safe training environment for everyone and every animal. As the Client, I am solely responsible for my animal and my animal’s action during training and in the future. I acknowledge and agree that any training my animal and I receive or contract for does not constitute any guarantee that my animal will not cause harm or loss, intentional or unintentional, to a human being, other animal or property. The Trainer reserves the right to discontinue training if the animal injures people or other animals, if the animal is considered a threat to people or other animals, or for unfair treatment to themselves or other staff by the client. You will not be refunded for the session or any previous sessions, but any future scheduled sessions will be refunded. Behavior Modification Plan Training modification plans are a guideline how each session will go, as well as the homework the owners have to do. This is subject to change at any time due to the unpredictability of training animals. Changes include the method or techniques of training, while still using positive reinforcement, non-force, and applied behavior analysis techniques, change in duration of training, as sessions will be either discontinued or more sessions will need to be added, and change to client’s workload within the training modification schedule. Client will be informed of any training changes, and client consent will be given before they are implemented. An updated training modification plan with new date will be sent out within 24 hours of the confirmed changes to the client’s email given above. The Trainer guarantees only professional training, and cannot guarantee behavior or results in individual animals. The client agrees to follow the trainer’s instructions without modification regarding any and all behavior and treatment of the animal.   WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY IN CONSIDERATION OF the risk of injury that exists while participating in ANIMAL TRAINING SERVIES (hereinafter the "Activity"): and IN CONSIDERATION OF my desire to participate in said Activity and being given the right to participate in same, I HEREBY, for myself, my heirs, executors, administrators, assigns or personal representatives (hereinafter collectively, "Releasor," "I or "me", which terms shall also include Releasor's parents or guardian if Releasor is under 18 years of age) knowingly and voluntarily enter into WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY and hereby waive any and all rights, claims or causes of action of any kind arising out of my participation in the Activity, and I HEREBY release and forever discharge FLUFF AND FEATHERS ALL ANIMAL TRAINING located at 608 Hookers Mill Rd, Abingdon, Maryland 21009, their affiliates, managers, members agents, attorneys, staff, volunteers. heirs, representatives, predecessors successors and assigns (collectively "Releases"), from any physical or psychological injury that I may suffer as a direct result of my participation in the aforementioned Activity.
