CORE VALUES
Empathy
Empathy is defined as the ability understand and share the emotions of others. We strive to be empathetic to both our human and animal clients so that we can solve their training and behavior issues with the respect and kindness both deserve.
Professionalism
Dog training is an unregulated industry--which means that anyone can claim to be a professional dog trainer. We have the education and credentials to back us up. We are committed to ethical and methodological behavioral training of our canine companions.
Relationships
We recognize and honor the value of relationships--the relationship between our clients and their pets, and the relationship between us and our client as teacher and student.
