Private In-Home Training

My private in-home training can help you solve ANY issue you may be experiencing with your canine companion, regardless of breed, size or age.

Maybe you have tried or are thinking of taking a group class. Given your dog is one of kind, the "one size fits all" approach of an obedience class may or may not help, as dogs are often different in a home environment than in a class setting.

The advantage to private, in-home training is that it is customized, tailored and personal to you and your dogs' specific needs, taking into account your dog's personality, drive and temperament.This type of training program is highly recommended by animal shelters, breeders and veterinarians, and I use only positive, humane and natural training methods – no clickers, shock collars or prong collars.
