Does your dog jump all over your guests, steal food, or pee on the rug? Do you get dragged down the street on walks, or does your dog bark excessively every time the doorbell rings? Using positive reinforcement methods, your dog will learn to sit when greeting guests, leave things that aren’t theirs, relieve themselves outdoors, heel politely on leash, and quietly stay when the doorbell rings.
Also offering behavioral consults to discuss solutions to problems like aggressive behavior, separation anxiety, shyness, and phobias. Using reward marker training (a click from a clicker or a verbal cue like ‘yes!’) to speed up the training process and provide clear, precise communication with your dog.
Worked with hundreds of dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments from Chihuahua to Pit-bull and Shih Tzu to German Shepherd Dog. Clearly communicating is key to understanding and working with every one of them.
