Double Certified Dog Trainer

Pitbulls, Dobermans , Rottweilers, GSD, etc., are the big reason why I became a dog trainer. I want to show people that these “highly aggressive dog breeds” actually have greater personalities than what most the media portrays them as.

Behavior experience

Barking
Resource guarding
Jumping
Leash manners
Separation distress
Leash reactivity
House manners
Fearful behavior
Anxious behavior
Recall
Chewing
Mouthiness
Potty training

Training skill set

Puppy training
Adult dog training
Advanced training

What to expect

Consultation

During a consultation, I normally try to do a meet and greet with the dog first to vet if this is a dog I can work with. I do not work with highly aggressive dogs! But I do have a reference for a great dog trainer that works with highly aggressive dogs.

Sessions

Typically in your home

A typical training session will consist of working on one issue at a time until we start seeing improvements. The only thing required from the owner is the commitment to consistently practicing after each session. Normally in between sessions, I will follow with a text message and/or phone call to see how progress is going. When the owner says that they are seeing major improvement then we move onto the next issue that the pup is having, if there is another issue to work with.

Positive Reinforcement

I create a lifetime bond through positive reinforcement training.(i.e. treats, toys and praise) Negative reinforcement is removing a reward that would’ve been given if the dog listens the first time.
