I do not certify Service, Support or Therapy Dogs but I do offer training to assist you and your dog as well as Canine Good Citizen Testing which is required by most organizations and is essential for any dog having public access.

My training goal is to use Positive Reinforcement - rewarding good or desired behavior and not rewarding or acknowledging bad behavior. When using positive reinforcement dog training you can use treats, toys, physical affection, verbal praise or a combination of any of those, to reward your dog for correct behavior. I also use some of Cesar Millian's (The Dog Whisperer) techniques and practices when dealing with behavioral or pack issues. I also believe in teaching a dog to THINK making the correct choices and decisions.

For owners-I believe in responsible pet ownership and training your dog to become a Good Canine Citizen. Leash your dog and abide your local regulations regarding your pets.

Socializing your dog is very important,
