Northern Pride believes you're always teaching your dog something.  Without realizing it, you may be teaching your dog the wrong behavior - reinforcing unwanted problems - which is probably why you are here, seeking guidance from a Dog Training Professional who has the knowledge, experience, and ability to teach you to be the Leader of the Pack.     
 
Remember, it is never too late to teach your dog to behave, no matter how young or old your dog is.  We offer "In Your Home Training" programs.  Whether it be basic and/or advanced obedience or a behavior problem that needs to be rehabilitated, we can accommodate your specific needs and situation.

* Does your dog exhibit any of these problems or behaviors? *

• Destruction/Chewing

• Barking

• Begging

• Separation Anxiety

• Jumping

• Chasing

• Digging

• Aggression/Playing rough                           

• Will go up, but not down stairs 

• Pulling the leash when walking (see our free doggie boot camp page

• Sniffing the ground constantly 

• Eating garbage off the ground

                                                "Whooo... Meeee?"

If so, we can help.  We offer: 

* Basic obedience - Includes: Heel, Sit, Stay, Down, Come, Housebreaking, Nutrition, Crate training, Proper toys, Treats, and I rehabilitate any behavior issues. This course runs 6 weeks as we visit your home once a week to work with you and your loving doggie   

* Behavior rehabilitaion class - Is geared specifically toward dog psychology to rehabilitate unwanted behaviors. This is a three visit course.

* Advanced off-leash obedience training - I teach you how to do all the basic commands off-leash. Geared toward having more control over your dog.

* Poison proofing - Is for people with dogs that seem to get into the household cleaners or other chemicals whenever you leave them alone.

* We also offer a class on bringing a new baby into the home, to teach your dog how to cope with the newcomer and to avoid having to get rid of your dog just because there is a baby on the way.  We will also go over "do's" and "don'ts" with doggie crates and baby gates, etc.  There is no reason why you should have to get rid of your dog.

* If it's your home where your dog is having problems, it only makes sense that we start your dog's training at your home.  It's a fact that if you train your dog at another place, like the park or another house or facility, your dog more than likely will not exhibit the same problems as he did at home.  Why? because his surroundings - unlike your/his home - are not familiar, and he is much more likely to behave or at least not act up as he would do in a familiar place.

* We also offer a consultation.  This is most common for puppies too young to be trained at the time of the consultation, where we give you advice on what gates, crates, toys are best for your puppy, as well as do's and don'ts of feeding your puppy, including how much and the best kind of food for your puppy.

* Have you already been through one of our training classes?  Maybe it's time for a refresher.  We offer a refresher class for $60 where we come back to your home and make sure you're doing the training with your dog as you were taught.  Better safe than sorry!  If you start doing a command the wrong way there is a good chance your dog will begin to pick up a bad habit and "OOPS" we don't want that!  This refresher course is well worth the money if you have been too busy to spend as much time with your pup as you would like to...
