Successful dog training is all about teamwork, and every great team needs a coach. That’s where we come in! We love helping people and their dogs understand each other better and have more fun together. Our dog-friendly training is structured in easy-to-follow steps, and your dog is rewarded for getting it right at each stage along the way. We incorporate the latest scientific knowledge about dog behavior, and we emphasize gentle handling techniques that never rely upon fear or physical punishment. Every dog and owner is different, so training is customized to your individual needs. We treat our clients with respect, kindness, and a sense of humor, and we’re always available by phone or e-mail to answer your questions. With over seven years of experience training dogs, and certification from the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers, we provide effective instruction to help you meet your goals. Most important, we are passionate about dogs and serious about animal welfare, serving as volunteers with a local shelter and a rescue group, providing discounted group classes to dogs adopted from rescue and shelter organizations, and offering pet recovery services for lost and missing pets.
