OBEDIENCE TRAINING

Loving Methods. Lasting Results.

Focused on keeping you and your dog relaxed and confident, a balanced approach to obedience promotes good manners as well as good canine mental health. Our training methods are neither treat-driven nor domination-based. This is a communication-centered, relationship-building approach that is fun, fair and effective. Learn to command love and respect by becoming the leader your dog deserves.

"Ruth has taught us how to communicate with our dog, which is the most important lesson any trainer can teach...If you think your dog is incapable of being trained then you haven't met Ruth!"
