Dog Training & Behavior Support
Raising
Happy Dogs
As the author of Puppies For Dummies, Dog Anxiety for Dummies, and other books, my mission has always been to change the way people think about and train their dogs. Dogs who feel good act happy and well-mannered—it’s that simple. Training shouldn’t be about control or outdated, punitive methods; it should be about creating harmony in your everyday life. Let’s work together to teach your dog the skills they need to become the kind of companion you’ve always dreamed of.
+125K Happy Dogs
In my 40 years of working with dogs & their people, I’ve found that a positive approach motivates all species, no matter how many legs they stand on! Whether I’m working with a young puppy, an older rescue, or a troubled dog, training is really about helping them build better, more positive routines to navigate daily life. I use fun, force-free methods that get results without stress. My goal is to help you create calm, connected routines that truly work—right where it matters most: in real life.
