How a call goes

Steady Leash Dog Training

Example call (scripted)
  1. Receptionist: Hi, you’ve reached Steady Leash Dog Training, this is the virtual assistant. How can I help?
  2. Caller: My dog barks and lunges at other dogs on walks. I don’t know what to do.
  3. Receptionist: That’s common, and our trainer works with reactive dogs. Can you tell me the dog’s age and breed, and whether there’s been a bite?
  4. Caller: She’s a three-year-old shepherd mix. No bites, just scary.

Where dog trainers lose calls today

  1. You can’t take calls mid-session

    Holding a leash and treats with a reactive dog in front of you, you can’t pick up the phone. Owners who finally decided to get help often call only once.

  2. Every inquiry needs a long intake

    To match a dog to the right program, you need age, breed, history and the problem. Doing that on the phone for every inquiry takes hours each week.

  3. Class spots and start dates confuse people

    Callers ask when the next puppy class starts, whether there’s room and what shots are needed. Those details change each session, and answering them repeatedly is tiring.

How does an AI receptionist help dog trainers sign up more clients?

It answers while you’re training and does the first part of your intake. It asks the dog’s name, age, breed and the problem the owner wants solved, then explains the program that fits from your notes and books an evaluation or class spot. You get a summary with everything. Owners dealing with a stressful behavior problem often call when they finally feel ready, and a quick booking keeps them with you.

Can it explain my classes and programs?

Yes. Add your puppy class dates, group class levels, private lesson packages and board-and-train details, including any prices you want to share. The AI explains them in plain terms and answers what’s required, such as minimum age or vaccines. When class dates change, you update the notes and the phone answer changes right away.

Will the AI give dog training advice on the phone?

No. It doesn’t coach owners through behavior problems. It gathers the details, books the right next step and leaves the training to you. If a caller describes a serious bite or a dog in danger, it can transfer to you or mark the summary urgent. For medical concerns, it tells them to call their vet.

Is after-hours answering helpful for dog trainers?

Owners often call after a hard walk or a chewed couch in the evening. After-hours answering books their evaluation or puppy class right then and captures the details, so you can review them before the session.

A person when it matters

Tricky calls go to a trained GH agent who sees what the AI heard, or straight to your phone.

Can the AI sign people up for group classes?

Yes. It can book class spots in Google Calendar or Microsoft 365 and explain your requirements. For payment, it points callers to your normal checkout or link from your notes.

Will it give behavior advice?

No. It collects the details and books a session. The training advice comes from you, where you can see the dog.

Can it screen for aggressive dogs?

It can ask about bite history and behavior using your questions and flag those calls in your summary, so you can decide the right program or call the owner first.

Does it handle in-home training bookings?

Yes. It can take the address and any building details and book the visit, so you know where you’re going and what to expect.

Can I try it free?
