You & I Train Your Dog

Let's work together to help your dog understand what you need from her! Dogs do what works. It's our job to determine what she wants and then show her how to, appropriately, get it!

This is a great option if:

  • We anticipate that, through these sessions, we can make progress quickly

  • We may want to start here and then propel forward to a Group Class

  • We identify that having you participate more fully in the beginning stages of your dog’s training will help us reach your goal faster

  • You’d like to take a more active part in your dog’s training

Rest assured, that we will also be hands-on working directly with, and training, your dog throughout this process, too.

The dogs (and people!) we have worked with are diverse! These dogs have taught us lots over the years and they continue to be our best teachers. We’ve successfully trained dogs (and the people who love them) with behavioral challenges such as:

  • Wariness of strangers

  • Destruction in the home

  • Separation anxiety or containment phobia

  • Poor leash manners

  • Barking at other dogs or people when on or off leash

  • Barking or chasing cars, skateboards, bicyclists, joggers

  • Territorial or protective behavior

  • Guarding behaviors, such as food or person guarding

  • Playing keep away, ie, not coming when called

  • Plain ole not doing as asked

  • Crate training

  • Exuberant tug or ball play

  • Discord with the cat or other dog in the home

  • Generally fearful or anxious

  • Fearful/discomfort with certain family members

  • Housetraining

  • Mouthiness

  • Crazy high energy

  • New puppy

Our private training sessions, like all our services, are intended to provide you with solutions to whatever challenges you may be experiencing so that, sooner rather than later, you can more fully enjoy everyday life with your dog. We will work together to reach that successful solution.

We have made adjustments in our training support to include remote training via online coaching in addition to safe, social distancing private lesson practices.

Not sure which option is best for you? That’s ok! Let’s talk about what you need and, together, we can discuss the fastest path to get there.
