A Harmonious Life Together
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.
Seeing Through a Dog’s Eyes
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 Power of Clear Communication
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.

The Power of Clear Communication
Who’s the most popular? Your dog!
A person who has excellent communication skills, is kind, patient, consistent and has top techniques in dog training knows the pleasure of a happy responsive dog. This team is easy to recognize. They are best friends. Where you see one, you see the other close by and engaged with each other. A relationship like this draws attention and others take note because as a team you stand out. Outstanding canine manners are greatly appreciated by all. You receive compliments. Yes you do. MANY. Doors open. Your dog is so popular that her presence is requested. You begin to feel your dog is more popular and loved than you are – and you wouldn’t have it any other way. Dog love. It’s the best “feel good” and so rewarding.
Real-World, In-Home Training
You and your dog may have issues or you may simply want assistance training while you are on vacation. It may be ideal to choose in home dog training. This means in your home, in your yard and neighborhood and other places you frequent with your dog.
Behavior Observation & Relationship Building
The reason is because this is where you and your dog spend your time. This is where your dog exhibits the good, the bad, and the ugly behaviors. And by the way, so do you. Behaviors, relationship obstacles, situations can be smoothed out to everyone’s satisfaction, even personalities aching for expression, and draw out needs and desires taking relationships to the next level.
Foundation for Long-Term Success
You establish solid foundation training. From there, you are able to grow on a platform built on trust and teamwork for the rest of your lives together. Your dog NEEDS to be given guidance TO LEARN the desired behaviors you want to have in the home, at the door, in the car, the neighborhood, the park, other people’s homes and in fact – everywhere. And you want to spend most of your time together relaxed and at ease.
Training Structure & Homework
Socialization, manners, obedience, communication, and connection are interwoven and you move smoothly and quickly to become a team. You are given homework to practice until the next training session. This keeps you moving and growing together as you both develop and refine your new skills as a team.

Socialize your dog for quality of life
Socializing your dog is a vital component of training to achieve a calm, relaxed dog in various life situations 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.
Get your dog’s social skills on par with life so your dog enjoys a happy, relaxed life with you.
