AM I THE RIGHT TRAINER FOR YOU?

I am 100% committed to helping you and your dog succeed. Before we get started, I need you to be familiar with me and comfortable with my training tools and philosophy. Please take a few minutes to check out my training videos and dog blog. It will give you a feel for what it’s like to train with me. To get awesome results you will need to be just as committed as I am!

HERE ARE SOME QUALITIES IN A CLIENT THAT I FEEL ARE ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY FOR SUCCESS:

• If you are seeking help for a problem behavior, you need to recognize that there’s a problem. You’re not the problem, but there is a problem. Something you’re doing is contributing to that problem, and you’re going to have to make some changes if you want to get a different result.
• You will need to follow through with the homework I assign between training sessions. You will need to make some time everyday to train your dog. Don’t worry…it’s not that hard! With my real-life training system every moment you spend with your dog is an opportunity to train. The training becomes a seamless part of everyday life.
• Everyone living in the home needs to be on board with the training program. Adults, kids, roommates, and household staff. Dogs are influenced by everyone around them, so everyone needs to be on the same page.
• Daily exercise is mandatory for your dog to be mentally and physically fulfilled! dogs that don’t get enough exercise can become bored and frustrated, and often make very bad choices. Exercising your dog isn’t about just putting him/her out in the backyard to play. It’s about structured walks, and possibly treadmill work.

The right way to begin and end the walk, and how to handle potential problems that you and your dog might be having on the walk like pulling, or aggression.
