About
No Treats, No Clickers, No Shock Collars, No Gimmicks ™
The Always Faithful Dog Training method aims to help you understand your dog's language, which we refer to as Leadership Dog Training.
As pack animals, dogs naturally seek to follow a leader. Our leadership-focused techniques empower you to become that pack leader.
Common dog behaviors such as pulling on the leash, jumping, barking, digging, and not paying attention are indicators that your dog is trying to take the lead. Our private in-home lessons will promptly address these behaviors and equip you with the skills needed to sustain your leadership.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Our prices are determined by the number of lessons performed. We offer a 10% discount to active military, police, or fire department employees.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We schedule an in-home assessment to understand the goals of our client with their dog. Once we complete the assessment we suggest how to approach the lessons and schedule.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
All trainers are trained by a Master dog trainer. Our Master dog trainer has trained over 1,000 dogs and each trainer must meet a minimum qualification of dog handling with a senior trainer, prior to training on their own. We also receive on-going education and support from our Master trainer to guide our methods for any unfamiliar behavioral issues we need to address with our clients' dog.
