Do you recognize yourself or your dog in the following pictures???

"In order to communicate effectively with a dog and train him we must come to a compromise. We must teach our dog a basic understanding of our own spoken language and we must also be prepared to learn more about the language our dogs speak". (John Rogerson)

    Most dog owners want their dog to behave appropriately in their environment. We can help achieve that goal. Basic obedience training includes sit, down, stay, come when called and walk on a loose leash. Issues like house-breaking, jumping on people, play biting, etc. may also be addressed.

    Behavior modification addresses issues like excessive barking, chewing, digging, and resource guarding. We also work with fearful and aggressive dogs.

    Owners will learn about dog training, management and prevention of unwanted behaviors, dog body language and general care of their dogs.

    Obedience training and behavior modification programs are based on "positive reinforcement training methods". Good manners are rewarded with mainly food, toys and play, after these desired behaviors are marked using a clicker or another reward marker.
