Hi, I’m Ingo, owner of Exceptional Canines In-Home Dog Training. I help puppies, adopted dogs, and dogs with behavior issues like leash reactivity, anxiety, and impulse control. My training is customized to your dog , because your dog is unique, and because cookie-cutter training usually falls apart the second the doorbell rings.
With 30+ years of experience as a professional trainer, AKC CGC Evaluator, and certified dog behavior advisor, I bring calm structure, practical tools, and real-world solutions that actually hold up at home.
Better behavior. Less chaos. More peace. Fewer “why is he doing that?” moments.

We have a 10 month old Pug who has a lot of energy and just lovessss attention. We’ve had 1 session of In home training with Ingo so far and I can already tell the difference it’s going to have on Zeus. Obedience training is going to make our lives with our puppy a whole lot easier. Ingo is a professional with a lot of knowledge and experience, he left us with the right tools to be able to calm our dog from jumping and being less energetic when others come into the home. Thank you Ingo! Can’t wait for our next session.

Such a wonderful experience. I was worried about my Aussie shepherd as I had waited too long to leash train her. I thought I was doing an adequate job in training her but I was wrong. Ingo came in and in an hour 1/2 he had done wonders with her. I’m learning as well as my puppy!! Such a great and professional approach.. I had searched for a trainer for her for awhile. I’m so glad I found Exceptional Canines. Thank you

We are so pleased with the transformation of our 18m Golden Retriever! Ingo helped make walks less of a chore and give us the tools to help our pup be well-behaved when meeting new people. As a veterinary technician he worked with me to build on the knowledge I already had regarding animal behavior, and taught me how I need to respond to my pup to reach our training goals. The at-home sessions were convenient and helped us address concerns specific to our daily environment. Super pleased with the results of our training sessions!

The minute Ingo walked in, I knew we were in good hands. His experience and knowledge is second to none! We hired him for potty training and by the time he left, our puppy was calm and the tools and exercises he gave us were so helpful!! We will be having Ingo back to address some other behavioral issues soon. Don't hesitate to call him!

Ingo is awesome! My husband and I recent adopted an 8 month old dog who was not potty trained and would refuse to use the restroom outside. Within an hour Ingo had my dog pooping and peeing outside! We cannot thank him enough.
