Cousin Anne’s Dog Academy

Hi! My name is Cousin Anne. I educate pups and their people for life. My methodology is relationship based with a focus on positive energy training that is built on a foundation of Exercise • Guidance • Love. Located on the Upper Eastside of Manhattan, I am a mature professional who provides attentive, individual dog-human relationship training and city adventure pack-walking with calm, confident energy. I host one-on-one training at my Dog Academy, with my assistant, Cody, who is my dog. I have a small private backyard on the Upper Eastside of Manhattan. Four to six consecutive weeks are needed for a dog to be introduced to the new behaviors and begin to retain them. When your dog returns home, it is up to you and your dog to work together as a pack to reinforce the healthy habits s/he has learned. I offer remote private sessions. You and your dog would need to be present for these learning sessions. Consistency and follow through are crucial when learning new behaviors. We can accomplish quite a bit while inside the apartment. In fact, if your dog won’t listen to you inside, it will be more challenging outside where there are far more distractions.
