My passion and purpose is not only to teach your dog the skills you need and want, but to teach you about behavior – for when you understand the mechanics of how your dog learns, and modify your own behavior, many of your problems will simply go away. All skills taught are geared toward the “real” world! Mission statement: To effectively teach dog owners how to build a positive relationship, erect

ing a line of communication with their dogs and train in a positive and non-punishing way to promote success in whatever their goals may be.

(comes in paperback/ebook formats - see link below) REVIEW: “Pam Dennison has done it again! She has written a fabulous book about training dogs that will benefit both the pet owner and novice or professional instructor. This in-depth volume bears Pam’s signature stamp of breaking tasks into small steps that make learning effective and fun for dog and human alike. When I think of Pam, I think of someone who really “gets” dogs and who stands out in her ability to teach using practical, simple, realistic, and effective dog-friendly methods. This wonderful book is chock full of easy to follow approaches that work with family dogs, working dogs, high-performance dogs, and dogs with problems. It is precisely because of its practicality and comprehensiveness that I plan to use this book in my Animal-Assisted Play Therapy training program. This is an absolute must-read for everyone who trains their own or others’ dogs!” Risë VanFleet, PhD, RPT-S, CDBC

comes in paperback and ebook formats - see link below. Creating an environment for your dog so they can feel safe enough to learn, is the cornerstone of this book. The essence of Modern dog training is understanding that it’s impossible to teach a dog “don’t.” Don’t pull on leash, don’t jump on strangers, don’t chase the deer, don’t, don’t, don’t. However, it’s very easy to teach a dog “do.” Do walk calmly by my side, do sit politely for petting, do come instantly when I call. The difference is subtle, but significant. What do you want your dog to do instead? Once you have your “do’s” in place, you’ll be able to fix any problem that comes down the pike.

The art and science in this book will teach you all of the “do’s.” For every misbehavior, there’s a solution waiting for you here. You will learn about breaking down behaviors using a positive, proactive approach.

Step-by-step instructions will help make what may seem insurmountable into something much simpler. This book guides you through it all:

A look at the science behind modern training techniques and why they really work.
Expert advice on basic training – sit, down, stay, come, door etiquette and loose leash walking
Addressing jumping, biting, stealing and other misbehaviors
Helping your dog become a Canine Good Citizen
Life mirrors dog training. The effort you put in now will yield you many rewards, both immediately and for years to come.

2nd lesson with MoTown for scent discrimination - we are now up to 5 disks, one of which is scented. He's pretty much getting it right every time, so now we'll do a collection of scent from mom and start introducing it on our next lesson.

"Saving dogs, one whistle at a time" Training the Whistle Recall, winner of a Maxwell Aawrd for Best Training DVD. Comes as a DVD, download, curriculum, Certification *and* Clinic! See link below. Review: I have been training different types of recalls for thirty years, as both a competitor and a professional trainer. Pam’s Whistle Recall puts all others in the trash! It has been fail proof for not only my own dogs–including a Yorkie–but I have been teaching it to my clients, both in classes and privates. I have yet to have it fail, even with a bull-headed French Bulldog! Do the steps, don’t skip, don’t rush and you will have a dog that comes every time.

We all now know how effective zoom is for dog training. live too far from a positive trainer? “Zoom” sessions (FMI and testimonials see link below)
For when you live across the country or across the globe and still want quality training for your best pal! Our Zoom sessions can be for just about any topic – handling issues, basic manners, crate issues, loose leash walking, heeling, greeting people nicely, animal husbandry (handling, toe nail clipping, brushing, grooming, etc), aggression and reactivity or any other topic you’d like to fix! (And Zoom is FREE!).

An added benefit of working via zoom is the availability to record your lessons! That way you can go back and review each session, making sure you don’t miss or forget anything and review the coaching I give to you as many times as you wish. Win- Win!!! https://www.pamdennison.com/zoom-sessions/

Brand new class! (see link below)
So, let’s say you have a dog or human reactive or aggressive dog…and so do your neighbors. I just came up with this brilliant idea because I have a client with just this issue. We’re working on her dog and making great progress, however, her neighbor’s dogs are still untrained. Not a great situation. https://www.pamdennison.com/neighborhood-training/

This book is an absolute must read for anyone who has an aggressive or even mildly reactive dog. It is very well written from the owner’s perspective as well as comments and thoughts from the trainer’s perspective. Knowing Pam and Shadow personally, as I was reading I was so drawn into the story that I forgot that I know him. I was so moved by the events written in this book, that it brought tears to my eyes and parts made me so sad. Then I stopped and realized, hey I know how this ends! But I was still riveted until the absolute end of the book. Pam has to add another book telling us more of Shadow’s story after the CGC.

(comes in paperback or ebook formats - see link below to start your dog on the right path) REVIEW: “How to Right a Dog Gone Wrong” beautifully blends the science of behavior with real-world experience working with aggressive dogs. It is wonderfully interspersed with the triumphs and tribulations that she experienced with her own dog, Shadow, as well as her clients dogs. Pam Dennison delivers her outstanding “roadmap for rehabilitating aggressive dogs,” for dog owners and trainers alike with straightforward concepts that reflect her breadth of experience in working with aggressive and reactive dogs.

From workable suggestions on managing dogs to ensure safety, to the behavior modification protocols used to modify aggression, Pam covers it all.

Filled with practical advice, this is a superb resource for anyone going through the same journey with their own companions. “Twelve Foundation Behaviors” as well as “The Golden Rules” are not the only highlights of this book. It succinctly outlines skills that are tantamount to success in aggression cases, as well as offering insight on how to troubleshoot typical issues that may arise.
