Personalized Training

I specialize in training family dogs. I can advise you on the selection and training of a dog or puppy. My training is personalized to suit your family’s needs and lifestyle. All training starts with a professional assessment of your dog’s strengths and temperament. My training is 100% guaranteed – at the end of the training unit the dog will obey the listed minimum commands. I do all the training work, leaving you the fun of maintaining the dog's skills. I will always be available should training issues arise. I am located in  Austin, Texas area near Westlake Hills.
