Mature trees give shade that large dogs appreciate in the Florida heat. Use it to build longer sessions, but keep water handy and watch for heavy panting. Cooler hours are still best for training.
Established neighborhoods mean plenty of other dogs. A big dog that pulls toward every passerby can be hard to manage, so practice polite passing from a distance. Reward focus on you. Fallen branches and acorn-like seeds tempt big chewers, so keep an eye on what your dog picks up.
Many Plantation households choose home visits to tailor the plan to their street. These are commonly estimated at $100 to $200, and a full behavior program at $600 to $1,800 if reactivity is a concern. A trainer can show you how to trade up when your dog finds something forbidden.
