At Mr. Dog Training I want you and your dog(s) to reach their full potential. One of the most effective ways of doing this is learning how to properly communicate with your canine companion and learning to listen to them. When pets and people aren’t speaking the same language, it can be frustrating. Just like with any good relationship, communication is key!
I believe training should be fun, for both you and your dog, and that training with your dog should help create a strong, lasting relationship built on respect and trust. I take pride in providing a safe, fun, and compassionate environment to learn in.

Thank you for contacting me and congrats on the new puppy!
I offer a free drop in Puppy Preschool every Saturday morning from 10-10:30am for pups age 8-16 weeks. Puppies must have had their first round of distemper/parvo vaccine and been in your home at least 10 days prior to coming to class. As soon as your puppy meets these requirements then you are welcome to come!
When you come to Puppy Preschool you'll want to bring your puppy wearing a leash and a portion of high value food (cheese, boiled chicken, hot dogs, boiled egg, or sliced turkey) to use as rewards.

She makes it easy with online, in-person, and hybrid classes.

Finn who is 10 months old is much better walking on the leash, he stops and looks at me when I call him and when he gets frisky and I ask him to sit and/or lie down....he does it.
We are signed up for FANCY PANTS and can't wait t9 learn more about being a good Mom and a good pup 😁😁🐾🐾❤️❤️

As a result of participating in Brilliant Basics, Opal has settled tremendously. I couldn't be happier.
Sara is a pleasure to invite into your home via Zoom, she gives individual attention to each member--team in the class with corrective and positive feedback, and she is clear in her directions. I found Sara inspiring and most helpful. Thank you!
Sincerely, Angela

Sara has a fantastic understanding of dogs and their owners. She is patient, fun, and funny, and joins us in the adventure of raising our dogs, and, more importantly, for us to be good dog guardians.
