Sometimes our dogs are almost perfect and just need a bit of help.  Whether you're having challenges with recall, pulling on leash, counter surfing, excessive barking, housetraining, or want to teach your pooch something specific and aren't sure how to start, this is for you.

Tired of locking your dog in a separate room when friends visit?  Do you have to walk your dog at 4am because of how they react to seeing other dogs or people on the street?  Walking on eggshells during feeding time or if your pet has a bone?  Growly pup when you try to take back the kleenex they stole?  We can help!
