Frequently Asked Questions

My dog is aggressive, can you train it?
As long as I can get near your dog, I can train your dog. I can train all mentally sound dogs.

How long is the training?
Basic Obedience is a consecutive five-week course which meets once a week for one hour.

Do you clicker train?
Yes, I do. However, I assess the dog and determine which method would be most effective for the dog and owner.

Where does the training occur?
Trainings occur in the neighborhood park or in front of one’s home. I will work in the home on those behaviors that only occur in the home.

I am looking to purchase a puppy, can you assist me?
Looking for a puppy is not a decision to be taken lightly. You are making a decision that will affect your life for the next 8 - 14 years (depending on the breed). I will assist you with deciding the type of dog that best fits your lifestyle and personality. I will also assist with locating appropriate breeders and/or adoption places, i.e., rescue organizations, shelters.

Do you guarantee results?
I guarantee that the dog will learn the designated lesson each week. If I do not teach your dog the lesson, the lesson is FREE! I strongly recommend owners train their dogs 10-15 minutes a day on the lesson learned that week. My most satisfied owners are those who work with their dogs every day!

Can I speak with someone whose dog you have trained?
I will provide you with referrals upon request.
