About
I train people not dogs. It's mostly understanding how a dog thinks and what triggers their behavior. Like any relationship, once there is good communication most situations can be fixed. I love dogs, and i always want to see dogs and owners have that special bond.

Eric is awesome-- very friendly, patient and accommodating with our family's needs and schedule for training. I promise he's like some super, guru, dog whisperer... I could not have survived the puppy phase without him. Highly recommend.

On time, professional. We are just getting started with a 4 yr old and a 3 month old. He did not use treats for rewards but affection once the training was over. He works with your situation, not a set number of classes, in your home with your environment.

I highly recommend Eric! He really understands dogs, but more importantly - he understands how to train humans. ;) We have only had a few training sessions so far, but I have learned so much and it is making a big difference with my puppy.

FAQs

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    I like to spend some time getting to know them and their dog. Once I understand their relationship then I can explain how we will train. It's important for the owner to feel comfortable with not only me but the training process. I want them to understand that they have to put in the work but the rewards are for a lifetime.

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

    When hiring a dog trainer I feel it's important that the trainer's style match the beliefs of the owner. There are many types of effective dog training and one is not better than the other, just a better fit in my opinion. Its good for the owner to ask a lot of questions?
