Build a positive relationship with your dog while teaching them important skills.  This training is for dogs of any age.  Eileen uses fun positive-reinforcement based techniques that will have your dog enjoying training with you, always wanting more!  Training with Eileen is designed around training useful skills using fun, relationship-building techniques.  She wants to help develop a confident dog who knows the right behaviors and WANTS to work for you.  With Eileen's expertise as a behavior consultant, this is not the same training you would get in any group class or with a regular dog trainer.  Her solutions are uniquely crafted for your dog as an individual and the specific needs of you and your dog.

​

Eileen does NOT use fear or intimidation methods in her training.  She does NOT use painful tools such as shock collars, prong/pinch collars, choke chains, or leash/collar corrections.
