Most people just want to be able to walk their dog without being pulled down the street, or have their dog greet people nicely without jumping, or just have their dog listen to them. Our dog training philosophy is based on the fact that dogs will respond to positive, rewarding situations and clear communication. We specialize in helping you learn to read your dog's body language so you can better communicate with them, and with small class sizes (5 dogs max/class) you'll get all the attention you need.
Whether you're starting classes with a puppy, need help with your 'wild child', have behavioral issues with your dog, or just want to have some fun and keep your dog's skills sharp, there is a class for you. From Kindergarten to College we've got classes to help foster that bond between you and your dog.
We train indoors and outdoors, on field trips and special events. We offer in-home training, private sessions, group classes (maximum 5 dogs per class), one topic single session classes, and seminars and we have 4 professionally certified trainers. Check out all the services we offer and our rates and we'll see you in class!
In a phrase: peace of mind.
When you look for a trainer with professional certifications, you know you’ll be working with a dog training professional whose knowledge and skills are grounded in the science of animal behavior—and who has a demonstrated commitment to excellence and ethical conduct. We are required to keep up our education and earn CEUs to maintain our certification.

Yes, our group classes are 100% owner participation training. This lets your dog learn to respond to you and can be very important in establishing a trusting bond between you and your dog. We do offer Board and Train as an option as well though too.
We like the least amount of equipment possible--generally a regular flat collar and 6' leash (with an occasional no-pull harness for those super pullers). We want your dog to listen to you and not equipment.
Other than having professionally certified trainers, we focus on your relationship with your dog and emphasize body language (your dog's language) to communicate.
What better way to say you love them and their dog! Send a gift card for group, private or in-home training to friends and family or buy it now for your future use.
