Effective, Enjoyable Training for the Family Dog

Unfortunately I am unable to take any new clients at this time due to managing Fido’s Forest. I would highly recommend a humane, force-free trainer that does not use shock (e-collars), prong, choke collars or other aversive methods.  Qualified local trainers include All About the Dog,   Trevor Debes at 260-553-5082 or trevordebes@yahoo.com, My Best Friend Dog Training, or Peaceabull Paws (they offer classes as well).  Green Dog Goods is another option for classes!

For severe anxiety or aggression cases, or if your dog struggles with veterinary appointments, Dr. Colleen Quinn with Quinn Veterinary Clinic and Behavior Center is a wonderful resource. Her practice is fear-free, which can help to calm anxiety regarding veterinary services. She is a certified trainer as well as a vet, so she can help with behavioral medications if needed, which are often helpful for these dogs.

If you are looking for assistance with managing your dog and children, I highly recommend Pooch Parenting.  She offers virtual training sessions as well as online classes and resources.
