Behavior Modification

Barking or lunging at other dogs, aggression towards people, resource guarding, or generalized fear or anxiety are just some of the behavior issues that are frustrating, difficult, or downright scary to deal with.

Our private in-home dog training can alleviate these issues that create an unfavorable quality of life for both you and your dog without using force, fear, or pain.

“Jeff was wonderful with Bailey. I was struggling with his reactivity and had been very anxious about hiring a trainer because everyone has their own methods and I didn’t want to expose Bailey to a bad experience. But Jeff was very clear on his methods and does not use aversive techniques. To my amazement, Bailey was very calm and did not bark and growl at Jeff even at the first meeting! The first person in almost 3 years that he didn’t react to! The training information was very easy to understand and practice and by our last session, I had a new person sitting at my dining room table and a dog learning to stay calm!”

Initial Consultation
For new clients, or new dogs of past clients, our first step is a comprehensive, 90-minute consultation at which we'll explore what’s behind your dog’s behavior - there may be different root causes and we need to know which we’re dealing with in order to formulate a game plan. We’ll also discuss management solutions to give you some immediate relief. Then, if needed, we'll put together a custom training plan that targets your needs, and schedule the time to carry it out to create some peace for you and your family.

“After just a few visits we had all of the tools we needed to help socialize our dog with other people. We've used the techniques that we learned and have had very good success. After a few minutes he was fine with some of our relatives in the house, with no barking or growling.”

“Jeff was extremely helpful with our girl's reactivity on the leash to other dogs and to sounds outside our apartment. we saw clear progress when utilizing what he taught us and that progress has continued for months after our last session. would definitely recommend!”
