Dog Training & Services

Board & Train

If you’re looking to fast track your training, perhaps a board and train option is for you. Have a new puppy? This would be a fabulous start! We always encourage clients to be the ones to work with their dogs but sometimes you just need a little jumpstart!

Behavior Modification

A lot of dogs have behaviors we dislike and don’t know what to do about. If yours are big or small, we’re here to help. From raiding the trash, counter surfing and jumping on people to dog-dog aggression, dog-human aggression, separation anxiety or noise sensitivities. Using positive reinforcers and shaping new behaviors, we can change the way your dog views his or her world.

*Please note* Some severe cases may be referred to a Veterinary Certified Behaviorist and your dog should also be checked out by your vet for any health or pain issues.

Agility

Whether you want to learn about Agility from the start or are a current competitor, Robin’s training methods are simple, clear and intuitive for the dog. All levels welcome. Even if you don’t have a desire to compete and just want to learn how to play the game of Agility, come out and have some fun with your dog!.
