Establish Yourself as the Pack Leader

Learn how to effectively communicate and lead your dog. Would you like to create an amazing relationship with your dog, all without the use of choke, pinch or shock collars or lots of treats?

This acclaimed training program methods, empower you with the insight you need to become your dog’s pack leader and trainer. Leadership is about becoming a great mentor, not “alpha”.

At your home dog training, in your environment and empowering you to train your dog without force is what we do! Once the role of pack leader is fulfilled by you, most other issues and concerns will fall naturally and easily into place. All the dog training tips in the world won’t matter if your dog doesn’t view you as his pack leader.  The bottom line is this: Dog behavior issues almost always stem from lack of consistent leadership and training. Pack leadership isn’t difficult to achieve, it simply requires a basic understanding of the pack leader mindset and consistent use of a few, straight forward techniques. Once this is achieved – it’s easy to train.

Training for the real world. The training is comprehensive, we focus on behavioral issues, obedience training and socialization with other dog’s and people. We start off the training in your home, where your dog learns the best and where they need to behave. Our acclaimed training methods are natural, dog-friendly, effective and kind.

Programs include: Leadership, Obedience Training, Behavior Modification, Socialization & AKC Canine Good Citizen.

All Dog’s are Different. We customize the training for your dog’s personality and needs, but typically, here’s how it works:

• The first lesson is about 3 hours long, designed to give you as much information and training as possible, so that you have the tools to get results right away. I will help you assess your current household dynamics, daily routine and nutrition that may influence your dog’s behaviors. After making any necessary adjustments, we’ll then teach you methods of canine communication that will help you lead your dog with confidence and ease. Again on the first lesson, depending on the age of your dog, we will teach the obedience commands; sit, stay, come, down and heel (walking next to you without pulling), we will then work on home manners and the specific behavioral issues you want to address right away. Aggression, Sibling Rivalry and Separation Anxiety require follow-up lessons.
  • Aggression
  • Lunging at dogs and people
  • Sibling rivalry
  • Separation anxiety
  • Jumping on people
  • Running to the door barking (door rushing)
  • Home Manners, etc!
• “Classroom” – Understanding Canine Communication & Pack Structure Behavioral Presentation: Does your dog misbehave, ignore or disrespects you? Does your dog think he’s in charge? We teach owners effective leadership techniques. Leadership=Mentorship. Pack structure is very important to dogs, if we’re not in-charge, they will be. Dog’s feel safe and secure with operative leadership. Understanding pack structure, leadership and canine communication will dramatically change the dynamics in a human/dog “pack”.  All training programs include this amazing education, which resolves dog behavioral problems.
• The follow-up lessons are one hour long and scheduled at the end of each lesson.  After the home issues are resolved, we start working on socialization, going on outings to public areas around other dog’s and people to teach your dog to be comfortable in any setting.
• AKC Canine Good Citizen Title. At the end of the training, if you wish, we’ll test for the American Kennel Club, Canine Good Citizen test!
