I offer private lessons in your home. My preferred approach is to train you to train your puppy/dog because that will enhance your relationship with your dog. I use positive reinforcement methods. I also offer behavior modification consultations and training for issues you might be having with your pup.

 

Certifications:

 

Training Equipment: Clicker preferred, but word markers can also be used. Regular leash and collar or harness; no flex leashes, prong collars, or choke collars.

 

Training Philosophy: Dog training should be fun for both you and your dog!

 

Locations Served: Counties: Tompkins, Cortland

 

I use positive reinforcement, no-force methods of training. Although my preference is to train you to train your dog, I can also do the training myself and then transition the behaviors over to you. I also encourage you to include those members of your family that will be involved with the puppy/dog in the training. Children welcome.
