Manners Training

Whether you're hoping to get jumping under control or teach your dog that the counters are not a buffet, we can help you reach your goals. It's never too late to teach a dog which behaviors are appropriate (and which are not).

The key to training good manners is to teach your dog that problem behaviors simply don't work any more.

So how do we do it? It's simple. We break everything down, step-by-step, to break through the human-dog communication barrier. Your dog becomes super clear about the behavior that is expected and knows it will be the most rewarding. It’s the smart route to a sociable, well-mannered dog that is a pleasure for anyone to be around.

We also work diligently to stop the rehearsal of problem behaviors with management plans. We know that behaviors get stronger each time they are repeated, so we stop the ones we dislike in their tracks. And finally, we make sure that the dog's needs are met through exercise and enrichment recommendations that provide an appropriate outlet.

How we can help you reach your behavior and training goals:

TEACH

We believe that it's just as important for dog owners to understand the "why" as it is to understand the "how." We'll help you understand what makes your dog tick so that you can see more of the behaviors that you want.

PREVENT

Normal dog behaviors are often in conflict with the way we'd like our dog to behave. We will teach you how to prevent problem behaviors like jumping, pulling and chewing from ever happening in the first place.

TRAIN

Here's where the fun begins. We'll replace those problem behaviors with more appropriate alternatives. We'll provide a plan to ensure that your dog has an appropriate outlet for all of his instincts and impulses.
