Canine Coaching

I began training classes with Canine Coaching when my now 3 year old Golden Retriever was 5 months old.  Although I am an experienced dog owner, I was having trouble understanding what my puppy wanted and needed.  "Old school" training methodologies rooted in simple obedience recommended by previous dog trainers were backfiring and I needed help.  My veterinarian recommended that I call Dottie. From our first training session, Dottie and Vinny were amazing.  They worked to understand each of my dog's behaviors and tried different strategies until we found the right fit.  They work to make training classes engaging, fun, and individualized. They truly care about understanding and helping every dog. We continued to do six additional training classes with Canine Coaching, including the therapy dog class.  When I take my dog out to the park, restaurant or in town, I always receive compliments on how well behaved she is.  I credit this to Dottie and Vinny. When I adopted a second dog, I immediately called Dottie for help and advice to make this transition go as smoothly for both dogs as possible.  The advice I received was wonderful and took each dog's needs into consideration.  Both dogs get along well and the newest dog is enjoying his training classes at Canine Coaching. I recommend Canine Coaching to every dog owner I meet!
