I start with moving you and your dog towards success

My approach is comprehensive and geared towards achieving results from the onset of training. Building a strong foundation by providing your dog structure through predictability.

I take into consideration the whole package of dog, handler, family and lifestyle. I work to achieve realistic and obtainable results.

My focus is on obedience, creating reliable patterns and eliminating unwanted behaviors. I utilize marker training with collar pressure and incorporate counter conditioning. I implement a broad range of tools based on the training needs of the dog and handler. This includes, martingale collars, harnesses, slip leads, long lines, prong and e-collars.

My rates for private sessions are:

The North Fork $160

Shelter Island $180

The Hamptons $200

I am both incorporated and insured as a professional dog trainer

Audio dog training files and me coaching you are part of your training

Dogs build confidence through predictability.

My focus is to help coach you in order for you to replicate the training techniques and apply them on your own. I am accessible to answer any training questions via text between 7 AM and 8PM daily

By following these techniques you will see an improvement in the relationship with your dog.

I provide timely feedback to my clients through audio or written reports. These reports give you step by step protocols to follow to head you towards success.

My goal is to be accessible and thoughtful in providing you with accurate and realistic guidance. I look at each client and their dog as an individual. I adjust the training to meet your dog at their level based on their temperament and personality. I spend a considerable amount of time reading your dog and then teaching you how to do the same. One size does not fit all with dog training. Taking into account your dog’s history of learning, socialization and approach to new situations will help to guide you to provide your dog what it needs from you as a leader.

Whether I am working with a Great Dane or a Pug, I begin by building on consistent concepts that I transfer to you.

Our dogs crave clear communication and predictability and I will show you how to provide this to your dog during our first session.

Once your dog understands what you are asking, the rest of the training moves along very quickly.
