Great Dog!


I've been doing a lot of private lessons lately and I recently finished one with a 3-year-old Puggle. The whole family got on board to teach 'Puggles' to stop raiding the garbage, get off the furniture, listen to commands, and go to his bed during family mealtime. Great job!

Family Dog Training


I've been doing a lot of private training lessons lately -- housebreaking, puppy raising, aggression, and everything else you can imagine). I love it, especially the tough problems!

Recently, I completed a series of in-home private lessons with a 3 year old Puggle. The whole family, consisting of 5 kids and 2 parents, jumped on board to tackle the issues of teaching their dog to get off the furniture, stay out of the garbage, listen to commands, and get away from the table during meals.

Everyone is on the same page and boy did we have fun and accomplish a lot!
