"Coming When Called Off Leash, Anywhere"

regardless of the situation. Safety hazards like door-bolting, critter chasing, and running up to aggressive or unknown dogs can be eliminated with this one important skill.

Behavior Modification
Does your dog bark or growl at strangers, guests or out in public? Does your dog resource guard or have possession issues? Do you get the sense that your dog is aggressive, nervous, and or scared of other dogs, people, and or new environments?
Obedience training and controlled exposure training can give your dog more confidence, and teach your dog how to behave around what makes them uncomfortable. You can have a normal and enjoyable life with your dog, even if they "have issues!"
