Our Philosophy

What does relationship-based mean? We believe that building a solid relationship with our canine companions is the key to living a fun, easy life with them. A clear communication system will help your dog navigate the world and know exactly what is expected in any situation. We take a balanced approach to training, while keeping in mind the individualities of each dog, owner, and situation. Utilizing positive reinforcement as well as drawing clear and fair boundaries, we will teach your dog how to navigate the world smoothly. We believe that training should be tailored to the needs of each individual, and we will work to find the right approach for you and your dog.
