Private Training Sessions

Specializing in Basic and Advanced Behavior 

You can avoid the distractions and allow your dog to learn in the comfort and privacy of your own home.

The best way to address behavioral problems is in the enviroment in which they occur - at your home!

Initial Phone Interview

Up to 1.5 hours - FREE

All clients begin here! During the initial interview I will get to know you, your family and your dog. We will discuss your lifestyle, routine and training needs in order to develop a curriculum that suits you best! 

All training sessions will be adjusted to fit your specific needs.

I will use modern training techniques that are based on positive reinforcement. I do not permit the use of tools or tactics intended to scare, harm, or intimidate your dog.
