Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Professional. Personal. Friendly. Fun. These are just a few words clients use to express their feelings after working with us. Training the dog is much more then getting Fido to "sit" on command. It is understanding how to speak"Doglish". This is what every dog speaks through body language. Our classes don't just teach you how to control your dog, but also how to understand, and communicate with your dog so you both achieve progress. Two decades of working with families, like yourself, in need of help. We work with k-9's and their owners all around the Olympic Peninsula, you can rest assure that you will have fun learning with your dog. We have experience working with dogs of all sizes, ages and stages. There are no breed restrictions. We also have experience working with disabled clients who need a specialized, trained service dog. Our class is one on one, in the private of your own home. We provide you with training, field trips, and understanding the laws both, state and federal and how it applies to using a service dog. We also help in preparing the client to advocate for themselves when they come across situations where they are not allowed access because of the "no animal" policy. Most services are provided in the comfort of client's home. Services include the following: * manners * basic obedience * behavior issues * GCG testing We also offer service dog testing, training, as well as workshops for businesses on access issues with service dogs.

Becky was recommended to me 6 and 1/2 years ago after Raffle, a rescued Great Pyrenees and Dutch Shepherd, year old male, indicated that he might be willing to work with me (a wheel chair user). We had taken him to puppy training as a 1 year old and had two other trainers in to help. Becky was attentive to my needs and could 'speak dog' better than anyone I had met. We worked together for a shorter period than either of us expected because Raffle learned so quickly. He uses his own problem solving techniques to help me with mine and adapts to my changing needs. Becky has stayed in touch all these years and taught me how to teach Raffle. I now have "The Greatest Service Dog in the World" as Raffle is known at the Veteran's Hospital that I use. He has been through 9 Hospital Admissions with me as well as traveled and been in 1000's of situations. Raffle and I am Eternally Grateful to Becky who showed us how to be such a successful team. Becky we look forward to your invaluable ability in teaching Raffle's replacement. Thank you Becky you definitely are the best!

Becky is wonderful with pets. She helped me teach my two cats to get along. Through positive reinforcement we brought my two cats into the same living areas. There was a lot of drama, Piper came into our home and tried to kill Mitts several times(she is a Manx) so it was imperative that they got along or Piper would have to be given away. Now Becky comes monthly and gives my grrrrllls baths and checks up on them. So give her a call and you will be so relieved that what you thought impossible ~ such as my case of the two cats~ just needed someone with knowledge and patience to teach them coping skills.

Becky was knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging as she worked with me, my two boys, and our dog, Maggie. We are working towards becoming a certified dog therapy team and training/testing for the AKC/CGC certificate was our first step. Becky was flexible in choosing our training location, she provided resource material, and she helped us all successfully learn "new tricks". We are appreciative and feel more confident about achieving our goal. Thanks, Becky!! Tricia Budd

Becky went out of her way to work around my busy schedule. She gave me invaluble pointers and insights to our little puppy's actions which were things we had never had to deal with before. She helped to make it possible to live with and understand the reasons why our little Abby was such a hand full. Kudo's Becky. Thanks for yuour dedication to helping Abby and us.

FAQs

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Make sure they are licensed as a business in WA state. I have own both of my business for the last 6 years. Also, ask what type of training methods they, the trainer uses. As the client you are always in control. Do NOT allow a trainer to take your dog away to train it. You always want to remain with your animal.
