About Calm Family Dog Training

WELCOME TO CALM FAMILY DOG TRAINING . MY NAME IS SUSAN COLE AND I AM THE OWNER AND HEAD TRAINER. Does your dog drive you crazy? Does he pull on the leash and drag you down the street? Does he sniff and mark everything in sight? Does he beg at the table and get underfoot in the kitchen? Does he steal food off the counter? Does your dog bark at and jump on visitors? Does your dog get left at home because you cannot fathom bringing him with you? I can totally relate, I have been there myself. There is hope, I can help. You can have a Calm, Family Dog in this busy, crazy world.

Sue was absolutely awesome with our new puppy. I would highly recommend Sue and Calm Family Training for your dog, puppy or adult.

I can’t say enough good things about the puppy basics program. I’m honestly amazed at how much better behaved and controllable my pup is after his time there. I loved seeing his progress posted on social media. It felt like I could follow along with what he was learning instead of wondering how he was doing. Sue did an incredible job not only training Marshall, but also helping me understand what I need to do going forward. She explained everything in a way that actually sticks, and I left feeling confident about how to keep building a calm, obedient relationship with my puppy. I’m so grateful for the work she put into him. It’s made such a difference already.

We could not have had a more positive experience with Sue as our personal dog trainer. She was extremely knowledgeable, professional, patient, and positive towards my Shih Tzu. Sue’s positive, reward-based philosophy is one I share and is most effective with our dog. Sue is very creative and uses a variety of techniques to address each need whether it be to teach standard activities such as downs and heel or to address unwelcome behaviors such as jumping on people or being reactive towards other dogs. My Shih Tzu responded so well and she really helped our Shih Tzu be a better family member! Thanks Sue!!!

Our pup David is almost 2 years old and he’s a wild dude, he has soooo much energy! David completed the 2 week board and train and he’s seriously a brand new dog. Sue has so much knowledge and patience! Trusting Calm Family Dog Training was the best decision we made.

Sue helped our family to have a consistent method of training with our lab puppy, and things improved for us dramatically and nearly immediately! Now we spend way more time enjoying our puppy instead of struggling to control him. I highly recommend Calm Family Dog and am so grateful we found Sue!
