Behavioral problems are something that all dog owners experience at some point during the life of the dog. Some problems are more serious than others. My goal is to work with you and your dog to determine a proper course of action to address these issues as they arise. Using our adaptive process we never deal with a behavior problem using just one solution but rather approach the problem with a series of solutions best suited to your particular situation.

Most Behavior Evaluations are conducted in your home. Many times behavior problems
occur both inside of the home as well as outside of the home. This is important to understand, gaining
control inside of the home first is critical if there is ever going to be any real success expected outside of
the home.

Most people take their dogs to group classes as a way to obtain a properly well trained dog. What happens at class, does not always transfer to the home and what happens at home does not always transfer to class. What’s most important is establishing a proper game plan prior to attending class. Lots of times group class is too much for your dog.

At our facility we can provide a similar environment to group classes and ease the dog into different amounts of stimuli in a controlled setting which allows us to be more productive. This is a great option for anyone training towards higher level obedience, service dog title or any other support K9 agenda.

Acquiring a new puppy is exciting but without proper planning and having a course of action to address the creation of unwanted behaviors life can be turned upside down. Having a game plan is the first step in avoiding any of the pitfalls of owning a new puppy. So much of the success of puppy ownership revolves around managing the puppy on a day to day basis. There are lots of ways to deal with particular issues, how do you know which one is right for you? Together we will navigate towards a realistic set of expectations.

For anyone with a very busy schedule, we offer a Stay & Train program. Your dog will stay at our state of the art training facility where we will train your dog for you. Between daily work-outs on the obstacle course, treadmill time and daily skills building sessions, your dog will enjoy many other fun activities while with us: dog socialization, going on nature walks on our 40 acre property, field trips to stores and other places for environmental socializing. Most importantly, your dog will learn good manners and obedience to become a well-behaved, well-trained companion for your family. We offer 2 programs for our Stay and Train guests – 4 weeks and 8 weeks.
