About Amy’s Dog Training

Have you ever wondered what your dog is thinking? Or ever wished that they would just listen to you? How about going for a peaceful walk through your neighborhood, with a calm dog by your side? The doorbell rings and they only bark until you tell them that, that’s enough? Have you ever pictured yourself with your silly, happy dog, who never runs off, playing together at the beach? All of these things are possible and attainable - WITHOUT using any correction tools or collars! By strictly using just your voice. I’ve been teaching humans how to understand, communicate with, and train their dogs since 1995. I use a practical, positive-based approach to transform relationships between humans and their furry companions. Schedule a call today

    I do this not just to work with animals, but to help people. I listen to all my clients and find out their goals with their dogs, cats, or horses, so that I can progressively work towards those goals each and every time we meet. This produces a strong trust and communication between myself and my ...

What people have asked about this business.

Hello, do you have a specialist who works with behavioral problems. Resource guarding, in particular, in adult dog? Thank you

Yes! Amy has trained dogs of all ages and does specialize in correcting severe behavioral issues and all forms of aggression. Resource guarding is a common case that Amy has helped in many breeds over her thirty years of experience. She uses body language, positive reinforcement and force-free methods to accomplish this by relying on the dogs’ natural instincts, functionality and their own individual ways of communication

We got a dog from the shelter. She is adorable. However, she had a couple of little challenges. We were just not sure how to help her be her best family member. My husband found Amy online. When we contacted her, she got right back to us and was willing to spend time learning about what we needed. We knew right away that we were gonna be cared for, and our little girl had a great teacher. We booked with Amy right away and on our first visit we knew that she was a good fit for us. Amy has come out three times. The difference in our girl is amazing. She has learned so much, and so have we. I would highly recommend Amy as your pet guidance person. She has helped us a lot and she is very knowledgeable. We can now open the door without our dog running out. We can take her for a walk without her, dragging us down the street. She doesn’t try to attack every other *ANIMAL that she’s on her walk. And her meal time manners have greatly improved.

I cannot recommend Amy Noble highly enough! She has helped me with multiple dogs over the years, and I’m always impressed by her gentle, intuitive, yet firm approach. Dogs immediately respect her, and she has a true gift for connecting with them. Equally valuable is how she educates the humans. Her sessions are fun, interactive, and clear, with practical steps and homework that make progress feel achievable. She also ties in other pets and family members so everyone knows their role and can support the process. Amy is kind, highly knowledgeable, and deeply intuitive. Whether you’ve just adopted a dog or want to improve your bond with a longtime companion, she’s an outstanding trainer who delivers real results.

Amy helped me turn my fearful, anxious spaniel into the service dog that I desperately needed. If one technique didn't work with my dog, Amy had three others to try. She did a great job of explaining, from the dog's point of view, where the problem behaviors were coming from. She came up with solutions when my physical limitations kept us from using traditional techniques. I would recommend Amy to anyone needing a dog trainer. I've had dogs for six decades and couldn't believe how little I knew about working with them.

When we needed help with our rescue dog Siena, we found Amy and she was a godsend! A true dog whisperer, and really all animal whisperer, she helped us with Siena's dog aggression. When we first got Siena, she was a year old and a very strong 50 pound Lab mix who could pull hard enough to pull me down when she saw other dogs. With Amy's patience and skill, Siena became a great walking dog who still didn't like other dogs, but didn't pull me down trying to get to them! Amy was not only our dog trainer but a good friend and when it came time to say goodbye to Siena, Amy came by to say her final good-byes as well. When we are ready for a new dog, Amy has also pledged to find us a dog with the same temperament as Siena because she was the best dog ever and we miss her every day. Amy is the best and we look forward to working with her in the future, whenever that will be.

Our family has worked EXCLUSIVELY with Amy since 2004 and would do so again! Our "fuzzy piranha" had her teeth on everything and everyone. Amy taught all of us how to break her of the habit and how to be a good family for her. Later, we adopted an Australian Cattle Dog...smarter than a lot of people! Amy helped us to modify his herding instinct into good boy behaviour. 10/10 would train again!
