FOX VALLEY & GREEN BAY & FONDULAC

VETERAN OWNED/OPERATED

Dog lover dedicated to teaching dogs proper behavior and improving the bond between owners and pets.

*. Any dog can be trained at any age, for any problem! People tell me all the time that a veterinarian or friend "told" them their dogs couldn’t be fixed for some reason, and should be euthanized. I’ve trained dogs as old as 14 yrs old an

d as young as 8 weeks. Starting your dog off in the right direction as a puppy is most certainly the best way to start but many owners adopt an older dog with emotional baggage, and that type of dog can still turn out to be the best dog you’ve ever had!! Healthier and happier relationships CAN be achieved between dogs and their owners, with some patience, some work, and some routine....DISCIPLINE EXERCISE AND AFFECTION ARE KEY. This improves behavior almost immediately. Even after all these years and all the dogs I’ve trained, I still love seeing dogs transform into what their owners envisioned. My love for dogs blends well with my love of helping people who love animals, specifically, dogs...and I specialize in the bull breeds. When the dog’s behavior changes for the better, EVERYONE can enjoy the dog, (especially the owner). Years of experience in the U S ARMY gave me the tools I needed to be able to read people and identify problems. Home Dog Training gave me the tools I needed to read dogs, identify problems and create a plan for resolving those problems. Seeing things from the dog’s perspective and being able to “speak dog” is the key. It took me years to develop my skills in reading and speaking dog. For most owners, it only takes a few hours to learn what is needed to change their own dog’s behavior. I continually hear how amazed people are at the quick change in their dogs’ behavior. In home dog training: I come to your home to help you train your dog. Because this is where the dog is most comfortable and where problems most often occur. It is much easier for a dog to learn in his own home, and it is impossible to set up scenes such as answering the door, counter surfing, and many other behaviors outside of the home effectively. Once you have good behavior at home, you can apply those techniques anywhere. Personalized, effective training for your dog: Every dog is unique. Every dog learns differently, just as owners learn differently. I will develop a plan with the owner and help implement that plan.PLAYMATES 4 PAWS does not use a cookie cutter approach, or a manual. We recognize breed differences, personality differences, and temperament differences. You will learn how to read your own dog and recognize what you need to do to change unwanted behaviors. We do not use shock collars, pain, intimidation or fear to train your dog. We also do not use food to bribe your dog into performing for you. Your bond with your dog, trust, and understanding are all you need to change your dog’s behaviors. Home Dog Training is ideal for:
•Aggression
•Separation Anxiety
•Sibling Rivalry
•Nuisance Barking
•Pulling on the leash
•Jumping up
•Toileting in the house
•Not coming when called
•Over-exuberance
•Not responding to commands
•Basic obedience
•Chewing and destruction
•Digging in the yard
•Puppy training

McDonald’s can get your order wrong 1,000 times and you still support it.

But when a local business makes a mistake once, you criticize it for life.

Walmart can raise prices overnight and you still shop.

A small business owner gives you their price, and you always want a discount or question the price.

Don’t be that person.🙏
Let’s support small entrepreneurs.❤️

Everyone who is thinking of getting dogs should read this because you need to understand this reality:

***I am a 21st century dog.***
-I'm a Malinois.
Overskilled among dogs, I excel in all disciplines and I'm always ready to work: I NEED to work.
But nowadays I get asked to chill on the couch all day everyday.

-I am an Akita Inu.
My ancestors were selected for fighting bears.
Today I get asked to be tolerant and I get scolded for my reactivity when another approaches me.

-I am a Beagle.
When I chase my prey, I raise my voice so the hunters could follow.
Today they put an electric collar on me to shut up, and you make me come back to you - no running - with a snap of your fingers.

-I am a Yorkshire Terrier.
I was a terrifying rat hunter in English mines.
Today they think I can't use my legs and they always hold me in their arms.

-I'm a Labrador Retriever.
My vision of happiness is a dive into a pond to bring back the duck he shot to my master.
Today you forget I'm a walking, running, swimming dog; as a result I'm fat, made to stay indoors, and to babysit.

-I am a Jack Russell.
I can take on a fox, a mean badger, and a rat bigger than me in his den.
Today I get scolded for my character and high energy, and forced to turn into a quiet living room dog.

-I am a Siberian Husky.
Experienced the great, wide open spaces of Northern Europe, where I could drag sleds for long distances at impressive speeds.
Today I only have the walls of the house or small garden as a horizon, and the holes I dig in the ground just to release energy and frustration, trying to stay sane.

-I am a border collie
I was made to work hours a day in partnershipwith my master, and I am an unmistakable artist of working with the herd.
Today they are mad at me because, for lack of sheep, I try to check bikes, cars, children in the house and everything in motion.

I am ...
I am a 21st century dog.
I'm pretty, I'm alert, I'm obedient, I stay in a bag...but I'm also an individual who, from centuries of training, needs to express my instincts, and I am *not* suited for the sedentary life you'd want me to lead.
Spending eight hours a day alone in the house or in the garden - with no work and no one to play or run with, seeing you for a short time in the evening when you get home, and only getting a small toilet walk will make me deeply unhappy.
I'll express it by barking all day, turning your yard into a minefield, doing my needs indoors, being unmanageable the rare times I'll find myself outside, and sometimes spending my days sunk, sad, lonely, and depressed, on my pillow.
You may think that I should be happy to be able to enjoy all this comfort while you go to work, but actually I’ll be exhausted and frustrated, because this is absolutely NOT what I'm meant to do, or what I need to be doing.
If you love me, if you've always dreamed of me, if my beautiful blue eyes or my athletic look make you want me, but you can't give me a real dog's life, a life that's really worth living according to my breed, and if you can't offer me the job that my genes are asking, DO NOT buy or adopt me!
If you like the way I look but aren't willing to accept my temperament, gifts, and traits derived from long genetic selection, and you think you can change them with only your good will, then DO NOT BUY OR ADOPT ME.
I’m a dog from the 21st century, yes, but deep inside me, the one who fought, the one who hunted, the one who pulled sleds, the one who guided and protected a herd still lives within.
So think **very** carefully before you choose your dog. And think about getting two, rather than one, so I won't be so very lonely waiting for you all day. Eight or ten hours is just a workday to you, but it's an eternity for me to be alone.

Dog trainer who is a Human/K9 COACH and “dog social worker”... Here is our story!

FOX VALLEY & GREEN BAY & FONDULAC Dog lover dedicated to teaching dogs proper behavior and improving the bond between owners and pets, through specialized training tactics. I work with many different breeds but specialize in larger breeds, and specifically, all bull breeds. I work with fear aggression (even when against other dogs). Food aggression, and most any issue. I also work with cats, ferrets, and horses. I have grooming services, as well as boarding, kenneling, and training sessions with and without other animals. * Any dog can be trained at any age, for any problem! People tell me all the time that a veterinarian or friend "told" them their dogs couldn’t be fixed for some reason, and should be euthanized. This is simply not true!

Starting your dog off in the right direction as a puppy is most certainly the best way to start but many owners adopt an older dog with emotional baggage, and that type of dog can still turn out to be the best dog you’ve ever had!! I don’t discriminate against any specific breed of dog either. Healthier and happier relationships CAN be achieved between dogs and their owners, with some patience, some work, and some routine....DISCIPLINE EXERCISE AND AFFECTION IS THE KEY. This improves behavior almost immediately. Even after all these years and all the dogs I’ve trained, I still love seeing dogs transform into what their owners envisioned.
