Why hire a professional dog trainer? 

When people call us for help, it's usually because they've realized they can't achieve the results they want on their own. They're in need of a
professional trainer who can help them to mold their dogs' behavior and create a living situation that is both peaceful and pleasing for all concerned.  

 We bring 30 years of dog handling experience and knowledge to our clients. These years have presented us with the opportunity to work with dogs of many different breed and temperament types, in a vast array of training scenarios and challenges. As such, we've been able to learn about what works and what doesn't. 

Over the years dog training has changed and evolved, and we've stayed current and informed of the latest studies and research on canine behavior and training. We then combine those 30 years of hands on experience and knowledge, with the latest information and techniques, to produce consistent results.  

Every dog should have a few staple skills. A dog who has good manners, who comes when he's called, and stays when he's told to; who walks nicely on a leash and doesn't soil the house, is considered by most to be a well trained dog. These are the skills we emphasize when "obedience training" a dog. But we don't believe the job is done until a dog will reliably perform these behaviors in real life situations.

We can help you teach your dog the things he needs to know, without turning him "robotic" or robbing him of the natural joy of his "doggie" self. Our vision is not to train a dog who will come to you only after being "drilled" or put into a sit, but rather to have a dog who can romp and play and still return to you willingly when called.

By teaching our clients to understand their dog's natural behavior and drives, as well as how to use those things when training and working through behavior problems, we can help them teach their dog what they want him to know...without suppressing his personality or dampening his natural spirit.

Learning to effectively communicate will

your pet can help to build a stronger,

more loving bond... 

     ...and utilizing positive, motivational techniques

will build trust and teamwork.

Why, "Ain't Misbehavin' K9?"

(Q.) What's in a name?  (A.) The truth.

I believe that what many people call "bad behavior" is just normal dog behavior that's not pleasing to people.  Often times, a dog's biggest crime is simply that of acting like a dog. 

It's this belief that inspired me to name this
dog training business:

Ain't Misbehavin' K9

``````````` The methods we use are scientifically proven to be humane and highly effective.
In addition to producing excellent training results, our priority is to foster a positive and willing attitude in every dog.
   With the proper techniques we'll help you build the
understanding, trust and teamwork that you and your
best friend deserve.
