I'm finding your videos give me very crisp and clear advice and explain the, easily missed, nuances of training by a professional dog behaviourist in a way we can try to replicate at home with our own dog. Thank you

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Our 11 mo. Schnauzer reacts towards males, when we are on walks and he sees one approaching alone, he will bark and pull. But If the person is with a pet, he does not care. Do you have any videos or advise on how to handle this situation? Thank you!
You’d deal with it the same as any leash reactivity. I’ve got lots of videos on that on my YouTube

Mr. Beckman is very nice. He trains the animals with a high amount of respect. He is matter of fact eith the owners and the animals. He does not use shock collars or prongs to train the animals. He makes it clear to the animals as to who is in charge but he does not do it with any kind of abuse. The animals learn to love him yet know he is the boss. He trains the animals in a spa like environment.
Went up to meet the owner/trainer. The facility was nicely laid out. I'm looking forward to having my puppy join this team for some guidance and training for 2 weeks.
We had a wonderful experience with Beckman's Dog Training with our three year old rescue dog. We learned tips that started working right away and it gave us more insight into our dogs behavior. I would highly recommend Beckman's!
Beckman's Dog Training and Boarding are the best! I rescued a 4-yr old dog and they helped both her and me through our difficulties ... mostly by teaching me what I needed to do and how I needed to be to get the best behavior from my dog. I always return to Beckman's when I need to board my dog because I know she will be well cared for and socialized with other dogs.
