    Consists of ten skills every dog should know, plus any individual issues your dog may have. I will teach you how to be a better leader, communicator, and motivator for your dog.

It is also the perfect opportunity for me to observe your dog in his/her own environment.

Very good dog training. The dogs have progressed quite far and he gave us the skills to keep them learning new behaviors. I was very happy with the in home training and how he fit it into our schedule. Very good positive training and when he starts group classes I will be there to further their growth in group settings. I looked at four different trainers before selecting Paul and am I glad I chose him. If you need dog training then this is the place to get it.

Paul did an excellent job with our two dogs, ages 5 and 3. One of them is deaf and he was able to help her with some other techniques. He taught us (and them !) many valuable techniques. He clearly loves dogs and they enjoyed their training sessions. We definitely recommend him!

When a new puppy suddenly came into my life, I didn't want to just muddle through her early training. A neighbor recommended Paul at Good Buddy Dog Training, and I am so very happy that I contacted him! Paul patiently worked with both me and Scout to establish fundamental skills and create boundaries. Paul helped me develop a good training process, and avoid the common training errors so many of us make that have long lasting consequences. Scout is becoming a confident, obedient and engaged companion, and Paul's guidance continues to help me engage her Cattle dog and Shepherd needs for simulation and engagement. Thank you so much, Paul, Scout and I are both very grateful!

Paul is a patient and knowledgeable teacher. The challenge was more in teaching me than in teaching my pup! His love of dogs shines through.
