Our training techniques are based around one simple question:
What do you want and expect from your dog?
We believe that the most effective method of dog training revolves around teaching your dog what you want them to do, how to behave, how to act in their environment, and what appropriate behaviors are under given circumstances and situations.
Our classes and private sessions focus on teaching your dog (and giving them the opportunity to perform) what the “right” choice is, so that your dog can make the right decision. It is important that we, as trainers and pet guardians, remember that we need to motivate our dogs so they want to do what we want them to do.
Even as a young child, Gayle was in-tune with the animals around her. She gravitated towards every dog and cat she met and spent hours playing with her neighbor’s pet skunk. At the age of six, Gayle discovered that even the local squirrels would perform tricks in exchange for bits of her peanut butter sandwiches. This passion for working with animals has been a driving force behind her career and life choices. After all these years, she’s still sharing her peanut butter sandwiches.
