Puppy and Adult Dog Obedience, and Socialization – In 48 hours, you will experience a huge change in your owner / pet relationship. No kidding! This class is a great foundation for you to learn about your pet, and your pet to learn English and basic obedience. While using students' dogs I demonstrate sit, drop, here, be nice, and much, much more. Training your pet should be great fun, a bonding experience with your furry friend… I'll show you how. It's so easy you will be shocked.

I limit the number of students in all my classes, so I can spend plenty of time with each and every owner / pet team.

Continued Education Class – This class is conducted in the real world…Valley Junction Farmer's Market, malls, grocery store parking lots, etc. My goal is to provide opportunities to safely socialize your dog in (what appears to be) “unpredictable” situations. Also, I will teach you how to be a “pro” active leader, instead of a “re” active follower. Your dog handling confidence will soar. Trust me!

Advanced Competition Class – Interested in competing in a dog show? This class will greatly enhance your handling skills in conformation, obedience, agility, etc.

In-home Behavior Consultation - We meet in your home, at your convenience. A history of your dog and the present problem will be thoroughly discussed. Together we design a 4 week program to meet those specific needs. We will also discuss proper nutrition, and possible health or physical problems that may be the cause of the unwanted behavior. Each week we evaluate your dog's progress, and can adjust your homework as needed.

Pet Selection Consultation and Testing - Temperament testing, whether for an puppy or an adult dog is a MUST. You need a pet that is suitable for your type of home, family, and activity level. Please do not buy a pet because you "Liked the way it looked". Let me help you pick the right pet, with a temperament that fits your lifestyle. One you will adore and that will adore you.

Educational Demonstrations - Schools or other Youth Groups at no charge (subject to Trainer availability).

Dog training should be EASY and FUN!

Your lifestyle will be taken into consideration. Included in your initial fee are follow-up consultations AT NO EXTRA CHARGE. I was here yesterday and today, and I will be here tomorrow. I am just a phone call away. Let me help you. That is my job!

In the past 20+ years, I have attended hundreds of classes, workshops, clinics and seminars, too numerous to detail here. Please see "My Credentials" link at the left for a brief list.

We know our program works because Judges, Competitors, Team Members, and Pet Owners tell us it does. Our program goes above and beyond the basic dog obedience. We do not use gimmicks, magical commands, secret signals, or special equipment. Dogs talk to us 24/7. I just teach you how to listen and understand. Then, I teach you how to whisper back, with love and respect for another soul.
