Basic Obedience

These lessons cover basic commands for everyday interactions with your pup.  During this type of training, we also work to identify and determine a plan of action to resolve any behavioral issues.

Behavioral Issues

Behavioral issues, like chewing or car chasing, are not uncommon among dogs.  Thankfully, many issues can be corrected with proper training.  If you're having trouble correcting a behavioral problem with your pet, allow The Dog Tutor (Don Henderson) to complete a comprehensive assessment and develop a plan of action designed to eliminate the issues that may be causing your dog to act out.

Separation Anxiety

When a dog suffers from separation anxiety, it can be heartbreaking to leave them home alone.  We work with your pet to teach them coping techniques that allow them to be more relaxed and less anxious while you're away.

Socializing Your Dog

Just like with humans, socialization for your dog is very important.  Without proper socialization, daily interactions with other dogs on walks, at the vet or pet store, and in your home, can be stressful instead of enjoyable.  Socialization is the key to a well-behaved dog and a well-behaved dog brings happiness to everyone they meet.

Along with training, exercise is another way to ensure your dog is happy and well-behaved.  We offer several types of walks: Daily walking so your dog can have a potty break and some exercise while you are at work, Trail walks in the park are a great option for active dogs or those in need of weight management and is ideal for socialization.

Walks are available throughout the day, morning, midday and evenings during the week and most weekends.
