About My Sidekick Dog Training

Train with Ash Rose, Certified Behavior Consultant - Canine and Certified Professional Dog Trainer - Knowledge Assessed. We specialize in fear, reactivity and aggression. Science tells us that positive reinforcement dog training gives us the best long term results. Focused on the welfare of both humans and dog, it's effective and ethical. We change behavior by improving the underlying emotional state of the dog, rather than using punishment to suppress behavior. You can feel confident that your individualized training program utilizes the latest techniques in modern behavior modification. No fear tactics, no intimidation, no pain, just good training. Contact us today and find the humane training solutions that work for you.

As a new pet owner of a 11-week old puppy, I have absolutely no idea what I am doing. After just one consultation with Ash this weekend, my husband and I both feel like we have regained control of our home. (Our puppy seems to be very happy, as well!) The thing that impressed me most about My Sidekick Dog Training was how professional and respectful Ash was to us - she was never judgmental about how we had been working with our puppy thus far, and she never made us feel like we were bad dog parents (potential judgment was something I had been concerned about when we were looking for a trainer since, like I said, I am clueless). Instead, we ended our first session feeling confident and excited to try the techniques that Ash taught us. She even followed up with us via email, putting everything we discussed during training in writing so we could go back and look at specifics if we needed to. I strongly recommend Ash for anyone looking for someone to help with their dog training.

Ash was awesome. I loved her training method and patience. She helped me understand what was best to help my pup. Training is not only for the dog but also for you. I would highly recommend her 100%!

Ash is a wonderful dog trainer! She has trained our puppy, Frankie, through her board and train program and has done a wonderful job! Her communication before, during, and after the program was great. She clearly loves pups and sets them, and their owners, up to succeed. Thank you Ash!

Before working with Ashleigh, just walking down from the second floor of our building to take Waffles out to go to the bathroom gave me a huge amount of stress and anxiety. I was constantly terrified of him biting another person or dog. After his first session with her I could already tell he was more happy and he was less stressed than he'd been in months. It felt like I was getting my sweet boy back. After a few weeks of working with her, I no longer felt overwhelmed by the idea of taking him outside and encountering other people and dogs because she has given us both all the tools we need to be successful. It's SO exciting to see the progress he's making. I don't know what we would have done without Ashleigh!
