Private training
Every dog has instinctual behaviors that they will perform at different intensities based on breed and temperament, but most of these are not suited for the home environment. When our dogs express themselves in unwanted ways, we need to look at why they are behaving that way to understand how to appropriately eliminate those behaviors. This requires a trainer to discuss thoroughly with you and assess the home set-up to devise a specific management and training plan to ensure your dog is better adjusted, practicing good behaviors and has outlets for their core needs. Private training is always followed with an emailed training plan with detailed information, resources, and/or videos so you feel educated and assured going forward.
Note: We have extensive experience in dealing with “difficult” dogs and work with dogs with bite histories.
Cat Training
Don’t be fooled by the name! The People’s Pup also can help with your cat’s behavior. We believe cats and dogs should be treated equally and should be provided with the same care, enrichment time, and learning opportunities. That’s why we specialize in dog/cat home integration, so all species can live harmoniously. From inappropriate scratching to counter surfing to the carrier and nail trims, we can help your kitty become a well-adjusted family member. Cat training can be done over Zoom or in person depending on their individual temperament.
