About My Training

 
My private sessions take place indoors at the doggy daycare facility after hours, specifically at 5:30pm. This allows for a controlled and comfortable environment where we can focus on the training without distractions.
During these sessions, I emphasize the importance of establishing a healthy leadership role with your dog. I believe that effective training begins with you assuming the role of a confident and respected leader. By establishing this leadership dynamic, you can guide your dog towards desired behaviors and foster a harmonious relationship built on trust and respect.

With my 10+ years of experience and the help of my dog Cody, we can get you the results you’re looking for.

To support this approach, I primarily utilize slip leads as a gentle and effective tool to teach basic obedience, manners, and behavior modification. This allows for clear communication between you and your dog, promoting a deeper understanding and cooperation.
Additionally, if needed or desired, I can incorporate advanced training techniques using an e-collar to reinforce what has been taught with the slip lead. However, the utilization of an e-collar is always done responsibly and with utmost care to ensure your dog's safety and comfort.
In addition to my training techniques, I have also developed custom training tools that improve upon what already exists in the dog training world. These tools are designed to provide greater convenience and precision in the training process. By utilizing these customized tools, we can enhance your training experience and achieve even better results with your dog.
Each private hour long session is priced at $50, ensuring that you receive dedicated attention and a tailored training experience for you and your dog.
If you are interested in learning more about my approach, including my emphasis on establishing a healthy leadership role or the utilization of custom training tools, please let me know. I would be happy to provide further information and discuss how we can work together to create a positive and successful training journey for you and your furry friend.
 
 
 

Gentle Control and Communication:

The slip lead allows you to establish clear communication with your canine companion while maintaining a gentle and humane approach. The lead's design combines a collar and a leash, providing you with the ability to guide your dog's movements and redirect their attention when necessary. The low-stretch ensures minimal give in the lead, allowing for immediate and accurate feedback during training. The pressure-based corrections facilitated by the slip lead help establish boundaries and reinforce your role as a confident and reliable leader.

Slip Lead Placement

Flat collars and harnesses, commonly used for walking and controlling dogs, have the potential to cause harm to their delicate trachea and larynx. These vital structures are located at the base of a dog's neck, where there is less muscle and protection, making them more susceptible to injury when pressure is applied. Slip leads offer a safer alternative as they are placed higher on the neck, taking advantage of the stronger musculature found in the upper region. Using the built in stopper to securely position the lead behind the dog’s ears you will reduce the risk of damage to the trachea and larynx, ensuring the well-being and safety of our furry companions during walks or training sessions.

NOTE: Improper placement of the slip lead can result in damage to the dog’s trachea or larynx. The lead must be placed high on the neck and tight enough to not slide down.

Innovative Bullet Casing Stopper:

A notable feature of this slip lead is the innovative bullet casing stopper, which enhances both functionality and aesthetic appeal. This stopper ensures a secure leash closure, providing peace of mind during training sessions. Its clever design adds a unique touch to the slip lead, highlighting attention to detail.

Eco-Friendly Materials:

This slip lead is thoughtfully crafted from recycled materials, making it an eco-friendly choice for conscientious dog owners. The rope used to construct each slip lead is made entirely from plastic bottles and the bullet casing stoppers are made from used bullets.
