All of us who have dogs take great pleasure in the loyalty and the enjoyment they give us. Yet most of us have also experienced frustration when our dogs or puppies are not obedienct or exhibit unwanted behavior. No dog is always "perfect". The problems can be minor, or even potentially dangerous to the dog and to others.

"My dog just bolts out the door and it takes forever to get him back"; "Jake jumps up on everyone.  I'm embarassed to have guests at my house";  "Lucy growls at children.  I'm afraid she might bite";  "Lulu doesn't like to have her feet touched and always squirms when held.  It's tough when we go to the vet"; "Boris rarely comes when called";  "Shep is digging up our entire back yard!"

All of these situations are solveable using positive reinforcement techniques. Understanding how dogs  think  goes a long way toward effective training .

Puppies require a good start in learning obedience, knowing their limits of behavior around the house and learning how to deal with other people and dogs.  Using consistent and positive reinforcement at an early stage will prevent future problems.

Adult dogs, particularly if they are rescued, come to us with an unknown quantity of obedience and behavior. With patience and positive training methods your dog will become a welcome member of your family.

I use positive reinforcement including
treats, toys and lots of praise to reward your adult dog or puppy for responding properly to a command.  I teach you to understand how your dog thinks, which reinforces their innate way of learning.  Both you and your dog will look forward to training. Your dog will become a  member of your family and truly become your best friend.
