Frequently Asked Questions

I have tried trainers in the past. How are you different?

All trainers and training programs are not created equal. Over the years we have tried many different training approaches and training environments. By doing this we have been able to weed out the things that did not heed optimal results.

Almost all training programs are centered around only teaching a dog rehearsed behaviors, Sit, down, stay, etc. Our programs are centered around changing a dog’s state of mind. We produce calm, confident and obedient dogs. We also focus on giving the dog’s owner/handler the knowledge and tools to succeed.  We teach the dog how to behave and we teach you how to lead.

The foundation of our program is relationship. We are not just training your dog we are entering into a relationship with you. There are no big secrets that you can only learn if you buy the next session or the next bigger package. We stay honest and vulnerable. Ask a question and you will get an answer. We want, more than anything is to see you and your dog succeed. We want to you and your dog, not just coexist together, but have a healthy relationship. We get dogs so that we can spend time with them. We are committed to helping you get there.
