Training and Consulting Services
By using positive energy and techniques, we don’t teach parlor tricks, we don’t use clickers and bribery, we actually teach our clients the fundamentals of how to understand their dogs, understand pack behavior and dynamics, and we get to the actual root of problems rather than treating symptoms. We teach our clients how their dog thinks. Here are a few of the typical issues we see that we can help you resolve:
- critical things you need to know to get your new puppy off to the right start
- crate training/”house breaking”, soiling in the house
- leash training and proper and safe handling techniques
- what is your dog thinking?
- pack mentality and why you must understand it
- how to have a healthy, balanced relationship with your dog
- anxious behaviors
- not following commands
- how to get your dog to trust and respect you
- and more…
In each session we will focus not only on resolving your current issue, but we will go much deeper to the foundation of the problem and teach you how to understand your dog and how to think like a dog so that as you encounter new challenges, you’ll be prepared to handle them and understand why. Most people try to resolve behavior issues by using either bribery (clickers and treats) or by attempting to project human psychology onto their pet. Since you’re reading this, you have probably figured out that both of these methods do not work. We’ll help you cut through the pop-culture dog-think and right to the heart of the issues and inside your dog’s head. Each training session is one-on-one, at your home so we can focus on your specific issues and to be sure that you walk away having a completely new understanding of your dog and a new degree of control over every situation.
We can help you understand the foundation of a long healthy life for your pet; pet foods and proper health care. We will teach you:
- how to read a pet food label
- what all those ingredients really mean
- proper feeding guidelines
- how to tell a quality pet food from an inferior one
- how to choose a pet food for your pets’ specific needs
- how not to be fooled by the dirty tricks of the major pet food companies
- where to get the best veterinary care
- identifying health issues in your pet and what to do about them
- and more…
We will meet with you one-on-one or can discuss all of this information over the telephone, which ever works best for your schedule. After our consultation you will be a virtual expert in pet foods and will be able to assess health care concerns in your pet and how to get the proper care your companion animal deserves.
