Your dog asked me to train you!

I focus on the humans to help them understand dog and puppy behavior. I want them to be able to keep training the right and most effect way even when I'm long gone. I specialize in building proper relationships and teaching the importance of mental stimulation.

What to expect

Consultation

During our consultation we will talk about what goals you are trying to achieve and how much time you want to invest. We will also do a Q&A and develop a plan that will help train your dog or work on a specific issue.

Sessions

Typically in your home

In your first session we will do a Q&A and review your goals for your pup. Then we will talk about enrichment strategies. I then will explain and teach you how to utilize a marker and it's importance. Each session is about an hour or so and it takes a session per issue you want to work on.

8 years experience
Positive Reinforcement

I begin with some counseling and use that to build relationship exercises for you and your pooch! I always use positive reinforcement training for your dog and never any force techniques. I focus on basic obedience for your puppy or dog to get them to sit, listen, recall, stay and go to the bathroom outside. I also help you understand the basics on dog behavior.
