Welcome To Dog Training Excellence!
This site shares my passion and knowledge of dog training.
Dogs, like us, are social animals. They live in groups, called packs, sharing food, shelter and taking care of each other. You and your family are now your pet's pack.
My goal is to help you understand the fundamentals of effective dog obedience training.
Not just quick fixes and solutions.
With knowledge and practice comes excellence.
.
Knowledge is also power..
... and I want you to have the power to be a great trainer to your canine friend!
How will I give you that power?
Unlike most websites that only give you recipes to solve a particular problem, here you will find practical advice...
...PLUS...
You will also learn simple and basic concepts to solve any behavior problem that comes up throughout your dog’s life. Now that is power!
Starter tips for excellence in dog training:
.
.
New dog in the family!
Did you just adopt a puppy?
You probably already fell in love with him, even if he is chewing off your favorite shoes or peeing in the carpet.
Did you just rescue an older dog?
You are probably starting to get to
know each other and see how much you can trust one another.
Whatever your story is (and I would love to hear about it!),
I will help you get the best out of this relationship. My experience
has taught me that the more knowledge you have, the better you can
handle any situation.
Discover how dogs think and behave so you know what to expect and how to handle undesirable situations. Dog training is about teaching and understanding your pet.
Get the knack of how dogs (and any other mammal, including us)
learn, so you can be the most efficient and clear trainer. This, coupled
with step-by-step guides to dog training and how to programs on solving problems will jump-start this new
relationship.
Finally, I want to also encourage you to find an
excellent positive dog trainer in your area. You can read all about it
and practice at home everyday but seeing dog training live and in action
is priceless. Participating in group classes with your puppy or adult hound will improve your pet's quality of life as well.

My
ultimate intention, of course, is to help dogs.
By giving you this
knowledge, I am helping them live a better and more rewarding life.
