What if your dog didn't have troubling behaviors anymore?
Regain control over a hectic life and have a dog you trust completely and can take anywhere.
Does it feel like your dog just won't listen? Are you embarrassed when you have guests over? Is your dog just plain stubborn?
The training program you will go through was built with the goal of immediate relief from frustrating behavior through tried and true methods. You will leave you understanding how to get your dog to walk calmly down the street or knowing how to deal with nuisance barking when it comes up.
I always use least-intrusive minimally aversive methods to achieve the highest quality of training I can offer. This is accomplished using a science-based approach through force-free, positive-reinforcement training methods.
In lieu of traditional training methods that involve punishment for undesirable behaviors, you'll learn how to teach an incompatible behavior (e.g., rewarding a dog for sitting instead of jumping on guests at your front door). I will work one-on-one with you to cultivate a personalized plan intended to nurture your bond with your dog.
GETTING STARTED IS AS EASY AS 1, 2, 3!
01.
Schedule a Discovery Call
This is a 30 minute phone call with an intake form on your dog's background. We will go over what you're having troubles with and which training program is best suited for your needs.
02.
Enroll & Onboard
Once you are enrolled as a new client with me, you will get a welcome bag (lots of fun goodies and required training supplies!). We will schedule all your sessions in advance to ensure we respect your time and the effort you are taking to change your life for the better with your dog!
03.
The work (& fun) begins!
Here comes the transformation! You'll have access to invaluable training resources immediately, 24/7 phone/text/email support from me for the duration of the program, and an online resource portal with videos and tips from me. While we are training together in person, we will start in your home. I'll be there to direct you through the most efficient ways to get the results you are looking for, whether you need a reliable recall or to for your dog to just stop barking!
