This Dog Training Services Agreement (“Agreement”) outlines the terms and conditions between California Cattle Dogs LLC and its owners, employees, contractors, partners, agents, and affiliates, (referred to as “the Trainer” or “we”), and the client, (referred to as “the Client” or “you”), for dog training services. By participating in our training programs, you agree to the terms outlined below.
