About Us
Our Business
Is it possible to train an
adult dog who has never
received training?

It is always possible to
train your dog. Dogs
learn through classical
conditioning.  We work
with teaching the dog
hand signals and words
while getting his attention
through what is most
motivating to him,
generally food treats and
,at times, toys.  We show
you how to wean your
dog off the treats after he
has learned his
command.

Why does my dog listen
to me sometimes but
not all the time?

Dogs can learn
commands in places
with low levels of
distraction but are unable
to perform the same
command when the
distractions become to
great.  We will teach you
how to get your dog to
listen to commands in all
environments.

Why is my dog so
stubborn?

.Dogs usually are not
being stubborn, they just
don't understand what we
are asking from them
due to not knowing the
command or not having
learned the command
well enough for a
distracting environment.
Dogs actually can be
using calming signals
that people interpret as
stubborn behavior while
all the while the dog is
trying to calm us down.  
Calming signals include
looking away, freezing,
and moving very slowly.
We will show you what
your dog is saying to you
and how you can relate
back to make your
relationship with your dog
more enjoyable and
meaningful.
