Personal Training

I believe the reason I have seen consistent success with my clients is that our personal appointments don’t just cover the ‘how to’ of dog training, but also the ‘why’. Like people, dogs are individuals with unique issues, personality traits and lifestyles. No single dog training program works for every dog, and my personally tailored dog training programs are designed to fit the needs of your dog and your family. Understanding some of the science behind our dogs’ behavior is critical to being better owners and to build a healthier relationship with our pets. I teach you about animal behavior, body language, overstimulation and how these topics relate to your goals.

While the knowledge is important, the main focus of our dog training appointments will be sharpening your technical skills. The exercises we practice are designed to work on your goals. We teach our pets how to behave, including around competing distractions in the “real world”. We cover how we implement dog training into your everyday life, and the mechanics of training our dogs. Depending on what we are working on, our appointments will be either in your home or out on a field trip.
