Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
How fast will I see results?
You will see your dog's first results during the Hands-On Introductory Session. But our whole process is based on teaching you an effective means of communication that works. That’s our specialty: teaching humans how to communicate with their dogs in a way that they inherently understand. That’s how our dog training program has been so successful.

Do you use positive reinforcement in your dog training?
Positive reinforcement, not punishment, fosters a respectful bond with dogs and encourages attention and obedience. By advocating verbal and physical praise, we tap into their desire for approval and affection and promote desired behaviors. Science supports this approach, showing it builds long-term obedience by associating good behavior with positive responses. Unlike treats, praise avoids creating dependency on external rewards, ensuring genuine obedience.

What sets AlphA and Omega apart from other dog and training companies?
The feature that sets AlphA and Omega apart from other dog training approaches is our emphasis on teaching humans how to effectively communicate with their dogs in a manner that aligns with the dog’s natural instincts and behaviors. Unlike traditional dog training methods that predominantly focus on instructing dogs, AlphA and Omega prioritize teaching dog owners how to connect with and understand their pets.

Our trainer, Ashley, is an absolute dog whisperer! She understands how to communicate with dogs and taught me how to effectively communicate with my puppy. He was a rescue and had some hang ups when I first brought him home (temper tantrums, alpha behavior). Braxton is now only six months old and is the most well-behaved puppy with a calm and loving demeanor. I can take him anywhere. He’s great with other dogs, kids of all ages, large crowds, loud noises etc. Ashley was available any time I called or texted with questions regarding Braxton’s behavior. I was apprehensive about the cost at first, but I’ll tell you first hand, it’s well worth the money to have a dog with great manners and obedience. Not to mention access to a trainer whenever I need it. I would HIGHLY recommend Alpha and Omega for dog training!
Watching Ashley work with my dog is nothing short of incredible. She is a wealth of knowledge and passion. You can tell she truly cares about you and your dogs success in the program! 10/10 recommend!

I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have never owned a dog as well trained as my almost 2 year old dog Bodhi after training with Ashley! Through her and the training offered by AlphA and Omega, he went from being leash aggressive with little to no impulse control to a calm, happy, and unbelievably well behaved pupper. Ashley is an amazing and supportive trainer who always makes herself readily available for any questions or concerns you might have through your program. I recommend Ashley and Alpha and Omega to every who asks how I have such a well behaved and smart dog. 10/10 5 stars for this amazing crew!

Spent two years looking for a good trainer and then I found Alpha and Omega. My great dane ran the show, caused scenes in public and was king of the house. I spent a ridiculous amount of money searching for a good trainer. Within the first two sessions at Alpha and Omega, our stress levels were lowered by 50-60%. After a few weeks, you would have thought my Dane was switched for another dog. Walks are easy and not stressful. He listens to commands and the training has provided relief beyond what was thought to be possible. The training created a better relationship for everyone in our home. Jay was an awesome trainer. He answered our 100000 questions and was patient with our mistakes. Alpha and Omega is my only recommendation for dog training - quick and positive results.
