Is there a new puppy addition to your family? Do you have a loved dog of many years and the two of you could use updated training? Experience and share a harmonious life together. Dogs bring such joy to our lives. Dogs are most eager to please and pay close attention to their people and communication. Over the years I’ve seen what is often missed – dogs need to be helped to understand what it is we want of them. Often the messages given are not clear and consistent resulting in frustrated people and a confused dog.
Years of experience of looking through both a person’s eyes and a dog’s eyes I’ve gotten to see and know what, how, where, when and why dog problems happen. Barking, digging, jumping, running off are often symptoms of a deeper problem of lacking clear communication and training. Because I’ve been dog training for decades, I’m able to quickly identify the dog (and team) challenges, address and solve them. As a master trainer I observe the obvious and the subtle signs. As with every profession, excellence is in the details.
Inexperienced trainers give solutions to the symptoms and while you feel good for a few days or weeks the underlying concern is not addressed and everyone continues to suffer with behavior problems.
The key is getting to the source of the issue, modify for success, and many behavioral concerns simply fall away. The pleasure of being a dog family returns and everyone enjoys a much happier and rewarding life. Call 828 772 9161 to schedule your personal success appointment.
Did you know that most dogs turned in to the pound and rescue centers suffer from behavioral problems? These are not bad dogs. Recent studies show 98% of dogs were not given the training to help them be valued members of the family and community. Dog training is not rocket science. (Wink). It’s great technique and consistent, kind training to lay a solid foundation of loving care creating an environment where your dog learns to trust you and turns to you for guidance. You get a dog focused on you, responsive and eager to please, and wants to share an incredible relationship with you. Imagine how good that feels for everyone. It’s FABULOUS.

“…Gentle hands, positive thought and a strong will are the most descriptive methods O’Neal used in training Max…”

“In most popular books and the ever present “hand me down advice” from all your best friends, all dogs can be trained or have their behavior modified. However, it seems most of those methods were more likely based on a heavy hand and dominance, perhaps working against a dog’s natural instincts or breaking its spirit. O’Neal taught Max and me to work together in building a learning relationship responding to each of our needs. My need for response and control and his need for love and respect are equally satisfied.
O’Neal taught Max and I how to communicate through a variety of techniques that are simple, subtle and effective building blocks in the proper interaction between my dog and me. He learns to trust in me implicitly and I can rely on him to respond immediately to my commands. When the two of us are in form it’s like poetry in motion. However, when it counts, you can really expect the pet you love to stop, lie and stay when their own life may be on the line and not just hope for the best!
Angel Dog provided the tools and training taking the relationship I have with Max beyond what I thought. Max is attentive, eager to please, in the best spirit, doing what he does the best: being a dog, loving it and me at the same time. All of this accomplished with the gentlest touch and positive thought.”

Socialize your dog for quality of life
2019 update with additional training for specific needs for an even better experience and results.
Socializing your dog is a vital component of training to achieve a calm, relaxed dog in life and environments she will be exposed to.
It is of the utmost importance to provide training in every possible social situation including other dogs, animals, places, sounds, smells, people, equipment, plus, plus, plus.
Starting just weeks after birth is ideal to get sound socializing started. If your dog received it – GREAT!
And whether or not your dog received early socializing, ongoing training is necessary, the same as other training, to keep it in place. Use it or lose it is true in dog training.
