We understand that even the best of pets can sometimes have problems. We provide practical solutions for many training challenges and problem behaviors, including:
Common problems (destructive behavior, jumping, barking, housetraining, etc.)
Leash manners/Heel
Our training methods do not include the use of aversive equipment or methods, as the latest behavioral research and our own experience have shown that such methods are not more effective and cause orexacerbate problem behaviors, including aggression.
No shock collars
No prong collars
No physical punishment
All training sessions are held at our training center. In-home sessions may be available for an additional travel fee, unless the trainer determines in-home sessions are necessary to address the problem behavior.

Payment for each additional session is made in advance, at the time of scheduling.
We do not employ or advocate the methods seen on 'The Dog Whisperer'. Our training and behavior programs are designed to change problem behaviors, rather than suppressing behaviors through the use of punishment. Our methods include the use of humane training methods and equipment and are based on proven knowledge of animal behavior.
Our training programs focus on teaching dogs to be well-behaved family companions. Our training services are not suited for dogs that are intended to be outside dogs more than 50% of the day, unless the goal is to transition the dog to living indoors with the family.
Euthanasia/Rehoming Policy:We strongly believe this is a personal choice to be made by owners after considering all factors. Our role in this regard is to provide the owner with a clear view of those factors and offer consultation and referral, as appropriate.
