We do not offer a program that houses your dog and trains them outside of your dogs home. Dogs learn best in the environment they live in with the people they love and trust. The issues your dog may face on your walk in your neighborhood are not the same as a training facility. Why add more stress to your dog's life by separating them from their home environment?Additionally, we find that many of the typical board and train facilities use questionable methods when training that we don't support. We do offer intensive one on one support in home, nearby, online that are very effective for transforming your dog's behavior. This way you learn how to work best with your dog. After all, dog training is a relationship exercise and I want you to have the best relationship with your dog moving forward.

Positive reinforcement training for dogs is all about encouraging good behavior by rewarding them with things they like, such as treats, praise, or play. When a dog does something right, like sitting on command, we immediately reward them, which helps them associate that behavior with something positive. Over time, this makes them more likely to repeat the behavior. We focus on clear and consistent communication, which helps dogs understand what’s expected of them. This approach strengthens the bond between you and your dog, making training a positive and enjoyable experience for both.

When training reactive dogs, positive reinforcement focuses on rewarding good behavior to encourage more of it. Instead of using any form of punishment, the approach relies on treats, toys, and praise to teach your dog what actions are good. Reactivity often comes from fear or excitement, so it's about changing how your dog views certain triggers, helping them stay calm. Each session is personalized to your dog's needs, working on things like focusing on you instead of the trigger and staying relaxed in challenging situations. Additionally, by using Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive (LIMA) methods, this training nurtures a trusting relationship between you and your dog, making everyday walks and interactions easier and more enjoyable.
