Skilled and humane solutions
for your dog's complex behavior and training problems!
Offering in-person services in Las Vegas
Virtual services via Zoom offered worldwide
Eileen Koval, CDBC, CBCC-KA, CPDT-KA brings unmatched expertise to the Las Vegas Valley working with clients to reach their goals with difficult behavior and training cases that owners believed may be beyond help.
Eileen provides personalized in-person services in Las Vegas and virtual services worldwide, all of which start with a Zoom appointment and discussion of your dog's behavioral, social, medical, and training histories while she observes and evaluates your dog. She goes beyond the approach of traditional dog training and obedience by looking at the whole dog to find the "why" behind problematic behaviors. This enables her to craft cutting edge solutions unique to you and your dog's needs. Many of her clients have gone through multiple trainers and veterinarians who simply thought solutions did not exist. Eileen's rounded expertise and unique approaches have brought her attention as a leader in the animal behavior and training industry, speaking at international events and working with trainers, veterinarians, and clients globally. In spring 2023, she released a new online seminar for veterinary professionals covering a variety of animal behavior and welfare topics. In spring 2023, she also presented a 4-hour animal behavior seminar at the nationally-acclaimed Barkleigh Petcare Expo. She will be headed to Paris, France in November to give a 2 day workshop. She will be returning to France in June 2024 to present alongside a panel of internationally renowned behavior specialists and ethologists at the ground-breaking animal behavior conference, "From Distress to Happiness".

If the appointment is virtual/remote, she can demonstrate training/behavior modification using her own dogs and provide real-time feedback as you train. She will share safety and management strategies, and/or provide other options, solutions and information. She will identify a plan for moving forward toward your goals. You will also better understand your dogs' needs and behavior and will deepen your relationship with your dog. While she works both in-person and virtually, the virtual aspect offers some additional advantages to in-person training - like the use of demonstration dogs, and allowing Eileen to observe dogs and train with them without subjecting them to the stress of a visitor (if they are uncomfortable or overstimulated with visitors), and maintaining safety for aggressive dogs.
Eileen will work with veterinarians, groomers, physical therapists, and other pet professionals as needed -- including providing referrals -- to help you and your dog reach your goals.
We do NOT use shouting, fear or intimidation methods in our training. We do NOT use painful tools such as shock, prong/pinch collars, noise aversives, choke chains, or leash/collar corrections.
