One Dog at a Time - Training

Private In-Home Training

Training is the best way to build a strong relationship with your dog. We teach positive reinforcement methods in a way that engages your dog and makes training fun for both of you. We will teach you how to become an effective leader without having to “dominate” your dog and how rewarding good behaviors is more productive than punishment. All our training is based on the foundation of animal learning theory and our methods are gentle and humane.
