Services
Christine S. Tilp offers a variety of dog training services, including:
- Puppy Training: This course is designed to introduce you to basic dog training techniques and help you form a close and respectful relationship with your puppy. Basic commands such as FOCUS, SIT, STAND, DOWN, STAY, COME, WALKING ON A LOOSE LEASH, LEAVE IT and DROP IT will be taught. Behavioral problems will be discussed which include issues such as housebreaking, jumping up on people, counters, and furniture, nippy and oral behavior, as well as anything else that that is needed.
- Beginner Basic Obedience: This course is for dogs 6 months of age and older. It is similar to Puppy Training but for older dogs. Basic commands will be covered through positive reinforcement techniques.
- Advanced Basic Obedience: This course is for dogs and handlers that have completed either Puppy Training or Beginner Basic Obedience. Basic commands will continue to be covered and brought up to a more advanced level. New commands will be taught, as well as "off-leash" training.
- Behavior Modification: This course is for dogs of any age. The elimination of behavior problems begins with obedience training. However, certain specific problems may be corrected with one or two Behavior Modification sessions. These sessions are for those who have a specific behavioral problem with their dog, such as destructive chewing, digging, jumping, food-stealing, possessiveness, excessive barking, fear-related issues, etc.

We've got the answers for your questions
Seriously, if you have any questions about training your dog, we have the answers.
We have created a directory of licensed dog trainers specializing in positive reinforcement methods. These trainers are not affiliated with Dogo, and all information is gathered from publicly available sources. Each profile provides a brief overview of the trainer's experience and expertise.
Start by evaluating your dog's needs and identifying your training objectives. Each trainer's profile provides insights into their areas of expertise. Match these with your dog's character and your goals to find the ideal fit.
All trainers listed here are certified professionals with extensive knowledge of positive reinforcement techniques.
Positive reinforcement centers on rewarding preferred behaviors, ensuring a pleasant learning journey for your dog. This humane approach is scientifically proven to be the most effective long-term training method, strengthening the bond between you and your pet. By consistently rewarding good behavior, your dog learns to associate actions with positive outcomes, leading to lasting improvements and a happier companion.
Yes, they are. Our trainers are adept in basic obedience or intricate behavioral challenges. Browse their profiles to identify a trainer who specializes in the particular issues you wish to address.
Simply click on the preferred trainer's profile to access their contact details. From there, you can get in touch to discuss your requirements and set up training appointments.
Group sessions offer a communal setting where your dog learns general obedience alongside other dogs. In contrast, private sessions grant focused attention, making them perfect for targeted behavior modifications or individualized training agendas.
All our trainers are committed to positive reinforcement techniques and steer clear of any harsh or punitive methods. Their primary goal is to make training a joyous journey for you and your dog.
Results depend on factors like your dog's nature, the specific behaviors in question, and your training consistency. While many clients observe improvements in just a few sessions, it's crucial to be patient and persistent.
Reach out to the trainer you're interested in to discuss possibly attending a session. It's a great way to get a feel for their approach and see if it aligns with your expectations.
