We offer 1 on 1 training sessions, each one tailored to your specific goals and your dogs own needs.
No two dogs react the same way to different training styles, Erin custom tailors her training regimes for your dogs needs.
Erin specializes in reactive and aggressive dogs, Erin will work with you to understand why these behaviors arise and how to mitigate and eventually get rid of them.
Our main approach to obedience is through agility training, running agility drills with your dog is a fun way of increasing your bond together.
Erin will guide you through custom routines that build authority with your dog and solidify your hierarchy with the dog.
Erin has extensive knowledge of service dog training including physical therapy dogs, deep pressure therapy, and wheel chair service dogs.

You can expect great results in as little as a few weeks, as long as you’re motivated and ready to embark on a journey of consistency and determination.
I will give you the tools to improve your dogs behavior, but just like going to the gym, if you’re not consistent, you’ll lose progress.
My program requires the human be coached. Part of that behavioural change comes from the human changing as well. I offer strategies, techniques, and behavioural and learning modification for both that is designed to bring about these changes. The openness and responsibility is on the owners side.
Usually if the owner is engaged and participating in the sessions and then spend 30-60MIN. Practicing skills between, owners get the results and behavioural changes they are looking for.
Some activities and skills are needed to progress to the next level of training.
If certain skills are not mastered and processed, we can’t go onto the next level of training and we just can’t proceed. If skills and steps in the process are skipped, training and skills won’t be as succinct in the end, and you will most likely need a refresher later.
Every activity is for a very specific reason to develop you and your dogs’ skills, and to get rid of unwanted behaviour and teach your dog a new way to respond to his environment.
I recommend spending at least 3 months after training to be alone with your dog, without me there. Both you and your dog continue to process the training after I leave.
I don’t recommend it as every trainer has a different approach that works for them. I have a specific system that involves both the human, dog, environment to train a dog. There are many pieces that I am assessing to develop your program. It based on consistency and will confuse your dog.
