HOW IT WORKS
In-Home Training That Actually Makes Sense
I don’t do group classes and I don’t train your dog in a place that doesn’t matter.
I come to your home, where the behavior actually happens
Step 1 — We Start With the Real Problem
Every dog is different. That’s why I don’t use cookie-cutter programs.
I look at what’s really driving the behavior — confusion, anxiety, lack of clear leadership — not just the symptoms you’re seeing.
Step 2 — I Show You What to Do (Calmly)
I work hands-on with you and your dog.
No yelling. No gimmicks. No chaos.
You’ll see changes during the visit, and you’ll understand why they’re happening — so you can keep the progress going.
Step 3 — Results You Can Maintain
Most families see meaningful improvement the same day.
You leave with clear direction, simple follow-through, and a dog that understands what’s expected — without turning your life upside down.
If I can’t help you, there’s no charge. It’s that simple.
WHO WE HELP
Real Dogs. Real Problems. Real Homes.
Most of the families we work with aren’t dealing with “bad dogs.”
They’re dealing with dogs that are confused, anxious, overstimulated, or missing clear direction.
If that sounds familiar, you’re in the right place.
You don’t need a perfect dog.You just need clear guidance and a calm plan.
We Commonly Help With:
-
Aggression toward people or other dogs
-
Reactivity on leash or in the home
-
Anxiety, fear, or nervous behaviors
-
Pulling, jumping, or lack of control
-
Puppy training and foundation skills
-
Multiple dogs in one household
In-Home Training Makes the Difference
Behavior issues don’t happen in a classroom.
They happen:
-
At your front door
-
On walks in your neighborhood
-
Around family, visitors, and distractions
That’s why we work where it matters most — your home.
If you’re unsure whether we can help, just reach out. If we can’t help you, there’s no charge.
WHY WE’RE DIFFERENT
Real Training. Real Homes. Real Results
Most dog training doesn’t fail because the dog is “bad.”
It fails because the training doesn’t happen where real life happens.
That’s why we only work in your home — not in a classroom, not on a field, and not on a drawn-out schedule.
No Cookie-Cutter Programs
We don’t sell packages.
We don’t lock you into weeks of classes.
We don’t follow scripts.
We look at your dog, your home, and your goals — then create a clear plan that makes sense.
Calm, Clear, and Balanced
No yelling. No intimidation. No chaos.
Our approach focuses on calm leadership, clear communication, and fair boundaries — the way dogs actually learn.
Experience That Shows
With 40+ years of combined experience and a 98% success rate, we’ve seen just about everything.
That experience allows us to work efficiently, confidently, and safely — even with serious behavior issues.
No-Risk Guarantee
If we can’t help you, there’s no charge.
That’s not a sales line. That’s confidence.
