Questions & answers

What people have asked about this business.
Whoodle (wheaton terrier/ poodle) is now two and is a barker/talker. She thinks she has to alert me to everything she sees outside the front window. I want her to stop barking as soon as I say "Enough, thank you" How to curb this?
This is really just a forum to ask actual customers about the business to assess if the service is right for you. So it's unlikely a licensed dog trainer will respond to this specific question. And it's impossible really to give an answer that will thoroughly address all the nuance if your particular dog and situation.
If you would like to learn to curb the behaviours you don't like in your dog and encourage the behaviours you do like, then the Pawsitive Dog is a great choice. They will equip you with the skills to interpret your dogs body language and teach you to help build a relationship that uses obedience and clear communication to make for happy dog/owner teams.
In your particular case, they would help you understand why the dog is barking and teach you to redirect her attention and focus on you so that she knows when to bark but also when you've got the situation under control so she will feel comfortable to settle.
As a client of +Dog for 4 years, I highly recommend them

Harry, here! I just took my human walking on the VERY icy sidewalks in Boston. Thank goodness for + Dog!!! because "we" trained her well! She walked right by my side today, so there was no chance of a slip or fall. She walks very nicely even though she is 3/4 of a century! Phew! She learned so much at + Dog, I can take her everywhere...the MV ferry, the subway, outside restaurants, even bed and breakfasts! (I love room service!) I have so much fun training her, so sign your human up today! You'll be thrilled you did! XO Harry

Jen, Scott, and Francis do an unbelievable job with our Doberman Beau. They are extremely organized in the class structure is perfect. When you drop your dog off for days school they provide very intensive training but you also have to go to classes once every other week to back up the training they do. This helps a lot because it shows me where I am allowing disruptive behavior without even knowing it. They give you all the tools you need for success and I highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for intelligent and intensive training.

Francis, Jen and Scott are great and our dog and many of our neighbors have gone through the day school programs and the bi-weekly evening training. We highly recommend them!

The trainers here are fantastic! They are super knowledgeable and all of their dogs are incredibly well trained. They teach you to raise a healthy adjusted dog that is obedient but not submissive. Classes are great and really enjoyable. If you ever have any questions you can call and they will give you great advice
