About Calm Family Dog Training

WELCOME TO CALM FAMILY DOG TRAINING . MY NAME IS SUSAN COLE AND I AM THE OWNER AND HEAD TRAINER. Does your dog drive you crazy? Does he pull on the leash and drag you down the street? Does he sniff and mark everything in sight? Does he beg at the table and get underfoot in the kitchen? Does he steal food off the counter? Does your dog bark at and jump on visitors? Does your dog get left at home because you cannot fathom bringing him with you? I can totally relate, I have been there myself. There is hope, I can help. You can have a Calm, Family Dog in this busy, crazy world.

For anyone looking for dog training, I can’t recommend this place enough. My dog Sonic is one of the highest anxiety dogs I have ever met. He is very skittish and had a lot of trouble focusing and relaxing, which made even the most mundane of tasks nearly impossible. I thought that maybe formal stay away training might help him gain some confidence and learn to relax a little. After two weeks, I was super surprised at the positive changes in Sonic. He still has anxiety moments, but we are able to quickly deescalate, refocus and have been going on walks, which was impossible before. Our day to day lives and interactions are much improved! Thanks to Susan we have a great foundation to build on. If you are looking for quality dog training, don’t wait, just go online and fill out the contact form!

Sue is THE best. My dogs are doing soo good. We can go to restaurants and parks and they behave soo well. If you are debating calling her, just do it! You will be so happy you did.

She was amazing. My German shepherd puppy Koda always gets compliments when we are out and about. Sue gave me the knowledge & tools I need to continue training Koda after the 5 weeks were complete.

Susan did wonders with Dabo during the 2 week stay and train. Dabo seems so calm right now, like a totally different dog. Susan is like a dog whisperer, dogs listen to her. You will be glad you took your dog to Calm Family Dog Training.

Susan made things very simple on how to anticipate and manage reactivity in my adult dog, Ozzy. Each week she equipped me with a new training skill, that builds on top of what we learned the previous week. She is rated highly and worth the money for a reason, I saw tremendous results in my dog after spending years of dedicated time training with his reactive personality. My dog was generally well behaved, but he needed some key insight that I did not have to get him to be fully non-reactive to other dogs, and Calm family dog has provided me with the necessary skills to make sure that he could be taken anywhere. It was wonderful working with you! Edit 6/15: I live in Brookl
