Results that will last a lifetime

Zen Dog Training is simple and effective! By combining our easy-to-learn methods into your dog’s daily routine (mealtimes, walks, regular pet/play sessions) you will discover 2-3 visits are all it takes to get your dog trained!

We are confident our methods work, because our #1 priority is YOU! Our focus is people training. Often simple changes in your dog’s daily routine can help you control outcomes to more easily teach new behaviors and stop unwanted behaviors at the same time!

Helping you and the people who interact with your dog create an environment for success is the key to successful training. Our trainers provide step-by-step instructions in easy to read and share “Games and Solutions” so training is fun for both you and your dog!

Customized Training Plan

Every dog is different and every client has different needs. Training visits are customized to your dog’s breed, age, personality, and temperament, but also, to your goals, learning style, family size, and can include special training goals (agility, therapy dog, off-leash obedience).

Zen Dog Training methods go beyond positive reinforcement. Our clients learn how to train their dog with compassion and mutual understanding, not force, corrections, or anger. Positive reinforcement training is combined with gentle interrupt techniques to curb bad behavior, to help your dog learn with less stress and confusion.

 

We get more done in 2 hours than other trainers do in 2 weeks!
