Dog Services and Training

One Step at a Time through Calmness, Confidence, Consistency

• Training sessions are held in your home or in a neutral area. Your dog is most comfortable in the simplest environment to learn new commands.

  I follow the principles of positive reinforcement with a balanced approach(corrections) in order to train and shape behavior. Dogs need structure. Within this structure, clear, consise, consistent communication is the key. Teach your dog what you want it to do, not what not to do.

  Every dog, owner, and environment are different; so I tailor training sessions accordingly. The commands we introduce, the pace at which we go, and the topics discussed are driven by you and your dog. Training your dog is an investment into a long and rewarding relationship. It is a win, win for you, your dog, and your family.
