Dogs are pack animals and require strong leadership. Through respect-based training, I will educate you how to become a strong leader for your dog and establish a bond with your dog based on mutual respect and trust. When you fulfill your dogs’ needs, and earn its respect, they will obey you consistently – not because they are forced or bribed – but because they want to. Dogs learn through body language, first and foremost. Using the umbilical method, your dog will learn to respond to your body movement and pay careful attention to you.
I train outdoors in the real world, for real life. Your dog will be exposed to new surroundings and experiences weekly, building your dog’s confidence and ensuring consistent obedience, regardless of where you are. I’ll show you how to incorporate training into your everyday life – and make it fun and interesting for both you and your dog!
Dogs need socialization. Proper socialization skills are key to having a well-rounded, well-mannered dog. You’ll learn how to properly socialize your dog with others. Group classes are an excellent way for your dog to meet new dog-friends, and learn to behave within a pack. I encourage clients and their dogs to socialize outside of class too!
Your dog is unique – and should be trained as an individual. We’ll work together to understand your dog’s unique personality and needs, and give you the personal attention required to achieve success with your dog.
Dogs need mental stimulation and physical exercise. Together, we will teach your dog to think for him/herself and “learn” the behaviour you expect of them, all the while giving them the physical exercise they need.
No bribes, no gimmicks. When you put in the effort required to train your dog properly, you will have rewarding, long-term success.
Training should be FUN! We’ll find activities that you’ll both find enjoyable outdoors. When you have fun, your dog has fun too!
Everyone in your family should be involved – even the kids! I encourage everyone the dog’s household to participate in training. It’s important for the dog to learn its place within the family, and to educate all family members (especially kids) on how to properly work with the dog.
Every dog has a different level of activity. Some are content with a daily walk or some ball throwing at the local dog park. Some would benefit from a full out roller blade on the canal a few times a week. Maybe your dog requires guidance in a simple walk and heel. We can customize an exercise routine best suited to fulfilling your dog’s needs.
