Dog Training
Basic Dog Training
Encourages desirable behavior: The most obvious reason to train your dog is that you can encourage good behavior—and discourage undesirable behavior. Training your dog means teaching them how to sit, stay, and heel, as well as how to resist chewing up your shoes, and how to wait to urinate until they’re outside. Training can help puppy owners and dog owners alike enjoy their pet’s company.
Dog Training
Why Dog Training Essentials
Offers mental stimulation: Just like humans, dogs can get bored—and when they get bored, they can act out. Training your dog, whether you’re teaching them essential commands like how to sit and stay, or fun new tricks like how to play dead can be a fun mental exercise that feels like playtime for your dog.
Dog Training
Best way to house train a puppy
Builds trust: When your dog successfully learns a new command, it builds the trust and affection they feel toward you, transforming your dog from the family pet to a loyal and reliable companion. Working on commands with your dog is the key to developing a strong and lasting relationship with them.

Train your Dog With A
Professional Dog Trainer
With an evaluation by a professional dog trainer you take the guesswork out of why your dog is behaving the way they are so that you can better understand them and get the help you need. Once you’ve gotten that help you can really start enjoying your relationship with your dog just as you imagined it would be so that you can proudly and confidently include them in your daily activities without worrying about them behaving badly.
Dog Gone Happy Training
We Produce Well Mannered Canines with Good Attitudes
There is nothing like owning an obedient, well-mannered dog that you can be proud to own. Giving your canine the keys to understand a common language and providing you with the dog training needed to maintain what they have learned for a happy life together is our goal with each client we work with. This is why hiring a dog trainer will help you.
Our Philosophy
We believe that a positive approach to dog training will enable you to have a well-mannered dog that listens to you. As a seasoned dog trainer and animal behaviorist I have the ability to turn out a “polished” or “finished” dog. More importantly, I am able to teach you how to handle your dog to retain the language and desired behavior that has been taught.
We feel a well-trained, obedient dog will be much happier one because they understand a language, they have structure, discipline and a pack hierarchy. Nowadays, with more people and businesses understanding that a canine is part of one’s family newly developed modern business models have now included many accommodations with this thought in mind so that an obedient canine has more liberties than ever before.
With your pledge to carry on consistent management after completing one of our training programs this what will allow your dog or puppy to enjoy today’s available liberties and you can be the proud owner of a happy, confident obedient canine that you can take with you just about anywhere.
With your pledge to carry on consistent management after completing one of our training programs this what will allow your dog or puppy to enjoy today’s available liberties and you can be the proud owner of a happy, confident obedient canine that you can take with you just about anywhere.
Because no two dogs are alike, no two dogs can be trained in the same manner. Knowing this we put a dog training program together that is tailored to each dog’s individual temperament and needs.
Therefore, as a dog accomplishes the goals we have set for them we will continually make adjustments to every dog’s program to reach our desire results.
Whether the dog is having behavioral issues or needs to learn to be obedient, we can provide you with the skills and program which best suits your dog. If you follow the program and method created for your dog, you will be extremely happy. Please visit our Testimonial page to read about what past clients have to say.

I had recently hired Christina to pet sit
for my three month old puppy, Dash, in June 2018. I located her through the website and found she was not too far from my house. Christina was very friendly when I had first contacted her.

We brought our 1 year old dog to Cristina for help walking on the leash and listening better. It has been 2 weeks since training has ended and our little guy is now a changed pup for the better. Thank you to Cristina for all that she has done. Would recommend.

Christina took great care of our pup during a short vacation. She was prompt, caring and easy to work with. She also sent photos each visit so we could stay connected. I would definitely use her services again and highly recommend her.

Christina watched our two dogs for a week plus and went the extra mile for our one pitbull that was sick at the time. Provided check-in updates routinely. Amazing service and would recommend to anyone within the region.

Christina did an amazing job with our Aussie/collie, Tucker. Tucker is a very stubborn but smart boy who needed a lot of guidance. We went to Christina after being frustrated with Tucker growling and showing teeth at strangers, pulling on the leash, and having poor recall. Within our trainings, Christina taught my fiancé and I the skill set we need to continue Tucker’s lessons everyday. After one month of working with Christina, Tucker has not since shown any teeth, and is an all around well behaved dog. It’s been life changing to be able to say “place” and have him run right to his bed and stay until his “break” command. I would highly recommend!
My brother has also used Christina for pet sitting while he goes out of town and has had only positive things to say about his pup’s stay.

We needed help with our 2 year old dog Kosmo. He is full of energy, constantly whining and jumping on every person he meets. Christina immediately recognized we'd been allowing this behavior and taught us the fundamentals of how to properly train him. We could not be happier with what we learned, especially that training starts with the pup parents. Each week we could see Kosmo's behavior was improving and giving us a more peaceful household. We had homework assignments every week and Christina sent thoughtful, detailed feedback to help us with the training when we weren't with her. We are grateful to Christina and highly recommend her for whatever issues your dog may need.
