Personal Attention is the most important part
of The Pet Coach curriculum.  We believe dogs (and
people!) learn best at their own pace, so we offer a
number of different ways for you and your dog to
schedule
one-on-one training classes with The Pet
Coach.  


Small Classes and hands-on attention make
learning fun!  If you prefer to learn with a group, this is
the choice for you. There are never more than 4
students in a Pet Coach class and every student is
an important part of the curriculum.  Dogs (and
humans) make friends for life here!


Our
comfortable, indoor facility takes the
stress out of dog training.  Have a seat and relax to
upbeat music while waiting for class to start, or
spend some time in the play room going through the
toy basket with your pup.  At The Pet Coach, we know
that learning does not occur in an atmosphere of
stress or fear, so we make sure everyone is  having a
good time before we start.

Our
positive, reward-based training methods
use modern techniques and up-to-the-minute
information on how dogs learn to maximize your time
and effort.  We emphasize building a relationship
with your pet that is based on communication and
trust, and we want to make sure that relationship
continues to grow throughout your dog's lifetime.
