Introduction: I have spent my entire life working side by side with all kinds of animal. And with dogs for 19 years. I have attended animal behavior college. I have a deep understanding of the of canines and the domesticated dog. I can teach you how to establish leadership with your dog and build an unbreakable bond with them very quickly. I will teach you how to communicate with your dog the way a dog understands. There is a language barrier and I become the Rosetta stone between you and your new family member bridging the gap between the two worlds. I teach you the proper way of teaching your dogs what the rules, boundaries and limitations are in the home and how to recreate pack hierarchy in your home by using respect and the power of praise by using the least instrusive minimally adversive way of learning. My job is to prevent owner surrenders and save dogs lives by improving their behavior in the home and bringing families together with confidence. I believe in creating balance. I strongly believe in application and understanding of evolutionary biology Into the training and communication that a canine recognizes in their language. I do believe in positive reinforcement with a combination of consequences. I do not believe in "over treating" a problem and I do not believe in "over domination" either. I believe in applying the correct amount of structure that dogs need to feel they're in the presence of strength combined with the positive reinforcement of their correct choices they are making teaching them balance in behavior, and creating "behavioral permanence." I am a high reward based balance trainer.

I am amazed of quickly the training worked on my dog. Though we are not finished with the training, I’ve already seen a HUGE difference in my dog’s behavior. Nathaniel knows his stuff and he knows dogs! Highly recommend!

Nathaniel changed the way my dog thinks. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to get at home dog training. He provides you with a pamphlet of information and he also teaches you how to train your dog. He is extremely knowledgeable and knows how to train a dog properly. Thank you so much for changing my life!

Nathaniel is not only a trainer, he is a TEACHER!. Very knowledgeable, gives you the theory so you can start to really understand the behavior of your dogs. He is patient in training the dog and the human . You see very fast result with his training methods. I have 3 dogs and we are starting with the youngest one. She has been progressing very fast on commands and loose leash. The other two are as well learning by association every time we practice. Totally recommend him!

Nathaniel has been a life saver….with just one lesson he has improved our Nellie’s walking skills and taught her humans so much about dog behavior. He is very thorough, explains and demonstrates each command and proper form. His price is very reasonable and he comes to you! I would highly recommend Nathaniel for all your puppy/dog training needs!
