Specific behaviors to address
Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Welcome! I offer a unique Board & Train program from the comfort of my home. My passion is creating healthy relationships between owners and their dogs. An owner’s relationship with their dog should be a joyful ever-growing bond; not a constant source of stress. Your dog will be taught to understand what behaviors are and aren't acceptable. The program includes not one but 3 hours of training per day for your pup over a 10 or 14-day period. The number of the days will depend on your dog's needs when we speak. Your dog will be away from home, accompanied and well provided for. What’s unique about my Board & Train program? • I’ll truly have time to train your dog as a maximum of 2 dogs are admitted at a time. Each dog is trained individually. • Your pup will have the comfort of being in a residence, not a training facility. • Indoor training is done in a real home where many real-life misbehaviors occur. For example, clothing and the couch are not to be eaten, guests are not to be lunged at, food on the counter is off limits, and so on. • Outdoor training for things such as leash-pulling, not being agressive toward other dogs, sitting for crosswalks, and so on are done in large park areas and a residential neighborhood. • Puppies under 4 months old can be admitted (which is not allowed in commercial facilities) • Most of my training doesn't include treats. Your pup will behave because it sees you as the leader, not because it expects treats. When your dog returns home, there's 4 hours of private lessons included at your home, to learn how to reinforce your dog's good behavior and prevent backsliding to old behaviors. I’m looking forward to hearing from you!

We are so thankful to Sean for taming/training our German Shepherd pup. He grew 40lbs in a few months and wasn’t interested in behaving consistently. Sean got him on a great daily schedule and taught him to walk without pulling, fetch and recall while remaining focused on us instead of the cars and people going by. Sean also taught him to relax in place which could not have been easy! Our dog is such a pleasure now and we are so grateful to Sean. We highly recommend his services to anyone that wants their dog fully trained and easy instructions/training for the owners.

Details: 6 - 12 months old • Large (41 - 70 lbs) • Board and train at a facility • General obedience training • Leash pulling • Chewing • At the pro’s location

Sean did a great job with the board and train of my then 13 week old golden retriever puppy Parsley. She came home with a firm grasp of the foundations. She now walks well on loose leash, and with the ‘place’ command she can be out in the home without being destructive. This has helped immensely with her seperation anxiety. Game changer! He is very responsive and helpful. Thank you so much!

Our 4-month-old husky has been with Sean for a week and is doing great. Sean has been very professional and responsive to our requests. It is clear he loves dogs and knows what he is doing. I am so excited to see Wolfie’s progress over the next week. I would not hesitate to recommend his services.

Lance is a great dog but needed to behave. Sean was very knowledgeable about the science of why dogs behave the way they do and was much more than I expected from a trainer. I recommend him 100%
