A lot people are sure that they have a very aggressive dog if they lunge and bark toward other dogs and/or people etc. However it is very often that the dogs are just reactive to different things in their environment. In this case it's easy to change it. We will talk about what I see and what I think it is the matter. Also we will talk about which kind of package might be the right one.

-Food Aggression
-Leash Aggression
-Impulse Control
-Obsessive barking
-Nipping/biting
- Separation Anxiety
Behavioral modification is not easily resolved in a short amount of time, but typically 6 lessons can be a good start.

Whether you know it or not, your dog is capable of finding just about anything. They can find your car keys, your wallet or even your phone. They have few limits on the scents they can track and it's a wonderful way to keep your dogs mind occupied; especially for dogs with anxiety or fear as they are able to gain self confidence through this special kind of training.

Our dogs are not only able to find things but they are also more than happy to bring them to us. That could be a blanket, your slippers or even medication you need. We can train your dog to accomplish these skills and they will be happy to learn them! Bring can be included in Service Dog training with no extra cost.

We will be your partner in training and can administer the tests for Canine Good Citizen, Advanced Canine Good Citizen and/or Trick Dog. We are able to train you and your dog in almost anything. You let us know what your expectations are, and we will work together to accomplish them!
