We are committed to using positive reinforcement training to create a peaceful home environment between you and your dog. She is a Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed, a member of the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT), a certified Canine Good Citizen Evaluator, and an Instructor for the DOG B.O.N.E.S. Michaela takes continuing education very seriously and has atte
nded seminars in the dog education field with Dr. Ian Dunbar, Dr. Nicholas Dodman, Emma Parsons, and Sue Steinberg. She also attended Karen Pryor’s Clicker Expo. Positive reinforcement training is the best way to create a peaceful home environment. In a force-free environment a reward based system is used to promote good behaviors. It is one of the most powerful tools to shape and change unwanted behavior. Group classes are designed to establish the foundation of basic manners and increase the level of difficulty to facilitate off leash obedience. Private training is tailored to address behavioral issues including separation anxiety, resource guarding, leash reactivity, bringing baby home, and facilitating positive relationships between children and dogs.
Happy National Dog Day to EVERYONE. And, we’re sorry, we’re not sorry, EVERY.SINGLE.DAY. is National Dog Day Here.

💔My heart is absolutely broken tonight. Our sweet OMDOG Katie took her final steps over the rainbow 🌈 bridge today at the wonderful age of 14. Ann, my thoughts and prayers are with you for strength during this grievous time. Katie will forever hold a special place in my heart. I absolutely loved every spent with her. Story time back to twelve years ago... She came rip roaring towards me. It was the first time that I ever had the thought that her adoption might not work out and she might be too rambunctious of a dog for your family. And it broke me and challenged me at the same time. Your commitment to her was evident, your consistency unwavering. I delved into Reactive Dog training. You were there at my first Reactive Rover class. We had to get her socialized and capable of being in a daycare setting. She was the first OMDAYtraining dog (although we called it something different back then) and our weekly training sessions were magical. She was so athletic and agile that I delved into agility - not for competition, but for confidence and fitness conditioning. And at your subtle urging of, “what’s next?” She was in my first Agility Workshop. And she was there to premier Canine Neurobics and Canine Neurobics Part Duex. She loved Party 🎉 Tricks and just being a Social Advanced Canine Good Citizen. And for Katie, we started Out & About’s. “It would be so fun to go for walks together with other OMDOGS.” And we had the most fun together watching her blossom into a perfect lady with the best sense of humor. I hear “Oooohhhh, Katie” in your voice. 🙏🏻 I will forever be grateful for your commitment to training, socialization and progress and giving her such a gorgeous life. Katie had a purpose. She was the best girl. 💜 #omobedience #wedontdeservedogs #whorescuedwho #positivereinforcement @ammdowney #consistencyiskey #omdog #bestgirl #rainbowbridge
