Questions & answers

From Google

What people have asked about this business.

Where is the training done?

I come to your home for the original consultation and all follow-up training sessions. If I am working with a dog who is reactive to other dogs while on walks, we will sometimes have a training session or two at a local park, trail, or in the owner's neighborhood, so that the training methods that have been learned and practiced previously, can be used in "real-life" situations with my guidance.

Question on Google
Can a senior dog still learn new behaviors?

Yes! Our senior dogs are quite capable of learning new behaviors. The key is to find what is most motivating to your dog and use that as a reward/reinforcer for a behavior you requested. Most dogs are motivated by food such as cheese and cooked chicken. But tossing a ball, a quick tug on the rope, or your verbal praise can be very motivating for some dogs too. So go now, and teach your senior pup some new tricks!

My dogs and I just finished working with Colleen. She is an incredibly caring, smart, and competent trainer who I would recommend to anyone seeking help with any variety of dog challenges! Not only does she set up you and your pup(s) for success through positive reinforcement and reward-based training, she is very organized and provides detailed reports full of wins and things to work on, as well as suggestions for different products and techniques, which is very much appreciated! I am happy to say that after just a few sessions, my dogs are doing really well with their training and I feel more confident in myself to continue to bring out the best in them. Having worked with various trainers in the past, Colleen is truly the best. I was sad to see our sessions end! But I will be forever grateful for all she's done for me and my dogs.

Working with Colleen was great. Definitely would recommend if you’re looking for a 1:1 trainer that teaches positive reinforcement. Our schnauzer puppy learned a lot!

My dog is a medium-sized Havanese mix with a feisty, playful, and protective personality. He has always been reactive, and it became more intense after we moved. Though he’s friendly once comfortable, he's is not with strangers and is aggressive toward anyone who reaches towards him. He is also easily triggered by dogs, wheels, runners, children, and sudden noises. Colleen has been wonderful with him. She was patient, quickly learned his temperament, and adjusted his training to fit his needs. My dog is still a work in progress, but I’ve already seen a big improvement. His reactivity on walks has decreased, and he’s calmer in stressful situations. I’m very grateful for Colleen’s guidance in helping build his confidence and improve his behavior

We had a wonderful experience working with Colleen. We have two older dogs who went through a few behavioral changes and had some scuffles that really worried us. Working with Colleen helped us learn to recognize their behavior cues and how to redirect them using positive reinforcement. She gave me the confidence and resources to trust in my training skills, so our dogs can live peacefully together in a calm way, while also teaching us how to meet their needs. We’re truly grateful for her knowledge and patience, and we would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for guidance with their dogs. You're in great hands!
