20 Mar 2014

We are excited to announce Dog Training!

We are currently accepting appointments for Private Classes and are taking reservations for Group Classes and Good Canine Certifications starting in May. 

Our Dog Training Philosophy

There is more to dog training than come, sit, stay and down. We believe the key to a mentally healthy, relaxed and balanced dog is educating their owners on the advantages of raising and developing a dog using positive reinforcement techniques.

Positive reinforcement focused dog training motivates with enthusiasm and respect. We teach dog owners to use counter conditioning, desensitization, redirection, rewarding and behavior modification to see the quickest, most effective training results.
