how we can help

Group classes

Whether you want help starting your new puppy off on the right paw with socializing, or getting your furry friend’s house manners on track, our group classes provide a roadmap to finding your dogs’ best selves. 

Group classes are a great way to train around distractions while feeling supported by a community of other students going through the same challenges.

NEW!: Classes starting in May 2024 and beyond will be offered in an updated 5 week curriculum more tailored to you and your dog’s needs! 

Private Training

Feeling frustrated by your puppy’s painful, biting and nipping or your dog’s penchant for counter surfing? Sounds like our private training packages might be for you! 

You and your dog will get the trainer’s undivided attention, and together we’ll work to produce a personalized training plan to bring out your pup’s best behavior.

Positive & Effective

We utilize evidence-based positive reinforcement training in our work with our canine companions. With our education in learning theory and behavior science and professional certification through the Karen Pryor Academy, we are here to not only help you solve behavior problems, but to help you prevent them from occurring in the first place! 

What Students are saying...

"Thank you so much for working with Reenie and I. We are at the vet and I can’t believe how much better she does in public settings. She sits and stays near me for comfort instead of freaking out and barking. I told her the vet scale was a mat and she sat and stayed to get her weight😊 Everyone was very impressed."
