Positive Perspectives

I am a certified positive reinforcement dog trainer. I combine my training as a life coach in trauma informed care and relationships together with positive training. I’d love to help you and your dog live together in ways that are satisfying and enjoyable.

Behavioral Modification Dog Training

When your dog is challenged to live with you in everyday life it can be hard to understand and damage your relationship. I come to your home to evaluate and initiate a training plan for you to develop ways for your dog to choose better options. I will create a comprehensive analysis to help you practice the skills that will enable your dog to alter the old patterns and develop new ones.

I will continue to support you as needed with follow up sessions, in person or by phone. Sometimes we can nip the behavior in the bud, but other times it just takes us a little longer to achieve our goal.  

Cost:

One 1.5-2 hour session $70

Follow up in person sessions, 1 hour at $62; 30-minute phone session, $30

Service Area: Wilson County

Mid-Day Dog Training

I come to your home and do one-on-one 30-minute sessions with your dog while you are at work giving your dog a mid-day potty and training break. It is necessary that I spend some time with you so you can continue your dog’s progress. One or two sessions with you is usually all you need. We can arrange a time at your convenience.

The difference between a regular walk and a walk and train is I will be concentrating on teaching your dog new behaviors during my visit. Behaviors might include, door dashing, mat training, walking on a loose leash.
