We’re focused on helping you achieve your goals, all while making sure your dog’s needs are met. After all, the saying is true – “A happy dog is a good dog”
Let us help you…
Work on the basics
Is your dog lacking in formal training? We’ll make sure your dog learns the basics and how to perform in a variety of scenarios.
Establish polite manners
Say goodbye to the jumping, barking, and overly excited greetings. We’ll help your dog learn how to be a polite canine host.
Stop all of the leash pulling
There’s not much more frustrating than a dog dragging you down the sidewalk! We’ll teach your dog to walk with you, so you can finally enjoy your walks again.
Teach your dog to come when called
We’ll help you teach a rock-solid recall so your dog turns on a dime, every time.
Solve behavior Issues
Whether your dog is barking and lunging on leash, or showing fearful behavior at home, we can help you overcome your dog’s behavioral concerns.
Avoid pesky problems
Prevent behavior issues from becoming a bigger issue. If you’re just starting to notice new behaviors in your dog, now is the time to reach out.
Why in-home dog training?
Convenience
Forget the extra travel time, traffic, and preparation for in-person classes. We’ll come to you to work on training where it matters most.
Training Specific to You
Sits & downs can only get you so far. We’ll teach you essential skills that are contextual to your everyday life with your dog.
Training Where it Matters
Dogs need context to thrive with training! We’ll work with you and your dog in your home, neighborhood, or wherever it matters most to your lifestyle.
Training Options
We offer two packages and training options to get you started on your goals for your good dog!

We work together to train your dog
Day Training
We do the training for you
We begin our packages with a Strategy Session. In this important kick-off session we’ll get acquainted, get on the same page with goals and expectations, and provide you tools you can use now and as training moves forward, always setting you and your dog up for success. We’ll also make recommendations for which Good Dog Training Package best fits your needs.
