Dog Training Programs
I will work with your family, on your schedule, to provide your dog the one-on-one private training he needs to address any topic or concern. I am also available for telephone consultations. Some of the most common training topics I handle are:
Behavior Problems
- Fearful Dogs
- Re-homing Adjustments
- Puppy Mill Dogs
- Aggression
- Separation Anxiety
Puppy Programs
I work lovingly with pet dogs of any age to help prevent and treat common dog behavior problems and encourage your dog to be a well-mannered, well-adjusted family companion.
