To help you to integrate your dog into your human household and your way of life.
Do you want a dog that comes when called, stays in place, doesn't jump on guests, walks nicely on the leash, doesn't chew on furniture, goes to the toilet outside, doesn't bark inappropriately, sits or settles down when you asked to, takes treats gently, doesn't table surf, leaves things alone when told to, leaves you alone when you need a break, and knows a few cool tricks.
We can help you with that!
