Dog training program in Milford, CT
A letter from Gus
Thank you for your inquiry.
My training methods are based on the science of the canine and are enjoyable for the dog.
Step 1 is a free evaluation to see what work the dog needs.
Step 2 is a family consultation with everyone involved with the dog to define the problem behaviors.
Step 3 is your training plan, designed for your situation. Protection work requires flawless obedience first and becomes an added command, not something that surfaces when the dog feels like it.
Stress, aggravation, and worry are eliminated and family life is enhanced. We set up a free appointment at your convenience.

What we work on
Dog obedience training
If your dog pulls, jumps, chews, or ignores commands, obedience training gives your family the same simple rules. Puppies through adult dogs, all breeds. The whole family learns together.
Behavior problem solving
Pulling, jumping, chewing, housesoiling, fear, and aggression. Gus reads your dog and finds what drives it. This helps families with kids or a new baby too.
Family and puppy fundamentals
The whole family learns the same rules together, including children, so your dog understands its place in the pack.
Protection training
Only after flawless obedience. Protection becomes an added command, not something that surfaces when the dog feels like it.
