Training Philosophy
Every dog should have the opportunity to learn basic obedience with their person. A dog given ample opportunity to learn obedience gains confidence, patience, and self-control, and has the tools needed to be a life-long family member. I am a certified Canine Good Citizen Evaluator, AKC Star Puppy Evaluator, and
Therapy Dog International Evaluator. I am also a certified member of the National Association of Dog Obedience Instructors (NADOI). I am a member of Westmoreland County Obedience Training Club, Greater Pittsburgh Golden Retriever Club,Three Rivers Shetland Sheepdog Club, and Loyalhanna Agility Club. I have been training dogs for 30 years, competing for 20 years, and teaching various dog obedience classes for over 10 years
Class Descriptions
Puppy Class

Description: The goal of the puppy class is to help you and your new puppy get to know each other and to introduce basic obedience concepts to the puppy.

Prerequisites:Dogs should have completed the Foundations of Obedience I, or have equivalent skills.

Behaviors such as stay, coming when called, walking on-leash & off-leash, are practiced with distractions using creative, fun games and exercises. Teaching your dog to focus on you as the environment gets busy is essential to a happy life with your dog.
