Customer Reviews
Elizabeth, Cavapoochon owner: Getting a puppy was a lot more than I thought it would be. Stacy helped me keep my sanity and gave me valuable input on ways to deal with all the puppy behaviors that were exhausting to our family. She also helped us train our puppy to obey commands.
Perri, mini Aussie owner: Our dog stayed at Stacy's house for 3 weeks for her board and train program. From our conversations leading up to and at drop-off, we felt so comfortable and confident our 4 legged child would be in the best care. . . . Our dog came back more confident and so well behaved! She also equipped us with the tools and strategies to ensure he retains everything he learned. . . . We love Stacy!!
Lori, JRT owner: We can see a BIG difference in his behavior - he's doing great and we are so proud of him Thank you, thank you!!!! You're 5 's Stacy
Julia, Pitbull owner: Stacy is amazing & so knowledgeable! I came to Stacy with literally no experience in training a dog. She really opened my eyes to how fun & rewarding it could be. Thanks to her, my dog, Bones the Pitbull, has been an ambassador for the breed.
Sharon, mini Goldendoodle owner: We are in heaven with Kerby. She was absolutely perfect last night with our guests! Thank you again for the great training . . . I hope to speak to [dog owner, name removed] today and will highly recommend you.
Cheryl, Lab owner: Stacy has done a marvelous job training both me and my rescue dog. She has wonderful instincts and is adept at reading people and their pets. She uses positive training methods and achieves great results.
Craig, mixed dog owner: I just wanted to say that not only did Stacy help us with training our dog, she went above and beyond in supporting us with a very difficult situation with him. Her help was very much appreciated and it made a big difference for us.
Tracy, Dachshund owner: Stacy helped me with a very difficult behavioral issue that had developed with my two dogs that are 10 years old. I spent a lot of time and money at the vet with no luck and found that after I took Stacy's advice, the problem resolved within about 2-3 weeks! Soooooo happy!
Sheri, Boxer owner: Stacy, where do I begin with how great she is at her job? She understands both dogs and people and works that into her training. She has great methods that really work. She will explain how and why something needs to be done and will go over it with you until you feel comfortable with it. Stacy had our boxer, Lily, at her house for board and train. Lily became part of her family for those 3 weeks, including snuggles with the kiddos! And the training will not stop there. She is great at answering any question you may have!! Her knowledge is a great resource for you as a pet owner and for her when she works with dogs. I will shout her praise from the rooftop to anyone who will listen. I highly recommend using her if you have any training needs.
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.
