My Theory

I am passionate about providing personalized training solutions to help you enjoy unlimited adventures with your dog. With my training methods, I first teach the dog what I want to see from them by guiding them into positive and rewarding behaviors. I believe by implementing structure, routine, guidance, physical exercise and mental stimulations will provide enough of an outlet to channel your dogs’ energy, habits and behaviors in a constructive direction for success.

My goal is to teach the dog to be independent thinkers and decision makers. With the right guidance and support, they will perform tasks individually and behave because they have respect for their pack leader, YOU. My plan is to bring each dog to their personal best and to perform tasks because their handler/owner has value to them. I want the dog to be happy while they work, and by doing so we are building a long lasting, trusting, and strong relationship.​

Trainer's Experience

With years of experience, our lead trainer at CS Dog Training has honed the skills necessary to understand, communicate, and train dogs effectively. Like people, dogs learn at different rates and in different ways. The training is structured to each dog individually to receive best results. We want you to feel confident about working with your dog and ultimately enjoy your time together all while holding you accountable for setting standards with your dog to reach your end goals. 

Our Method

At CS Dog Training, we believe that developing a relationship-based training approach is the most effective and successful way to establish boundaries and communication between you and your furry friend. 

Every dog has their own quirks that need attention to detail but only after the proper training technique has been identified for that individual dog to ensure there is no confusion.

What qualifies us to train your dog? 

3+ years of dog training experience.
Open minded to new training skills and ideas and continues to attend seminars and other dog training related activities to further education and experience. 

How do you know CS Dog Training is the right fit for you?
ASK QUESTIONS and SEE THE PROOF! The only thing that TWO dog trainers will ever agree on is what the THIRD dog trainer is doing wrong. Any real dog trainer will be the first to tell you there is no ONE WAY of teaching a dog a skill. We strongly advise for you to ask for references. We want our work to be validated not only through pictures and videos that are found on the web. But through past and present clients who trusted us with their beloved family member.
