Personalized dog training built for lasting results

Certified one-on-one dog training in Iberia, Missouri or your own home. Backed by three AKC certifications and hundreds of hours of hands-on experience, we design custom training plans to fit your dog's unique needs and your schedule. We will also teach you how to use the training to best maximize your desired results. 

Our specialized training services

Every canine companion learns at their own pace. We provide tailored, private instruction to address everyday obedience, behavior concerns, and advanced goals with fast availability and fair rates.

Puppy and basic obedience

Build a reliable foundation covering leash manners, sit, stay, recall, and impulse control. Designed to give your dog confidence in day-to-day life.

One-on-one behavioral coaching

Target specific challenges like jumping, excessive barking, reactivity, or pulling on leash with dedicated private training focused entirely on your pet.

AKC certification prep

Structured guidance to prepare your dog for AKC tests such as Canine Good Citizen (CGC), backed by professional knowledge and proven training methods.

Service and task fundamentals

Benefiting from practical experience training a personal service dog with hundreds of logged hours, we instruct on advanced focus, obedience, and task foundations.

For dogs that are easily distracted by other dogs in a group training setting this is for you. I provide one-on-one training for your dog. No distractions, no fighting and training designed for your dog's needs.

 

Dedicated dog parent

About us

It all began, when I needed a service dog. I couldn't afford to purchase one and couldn't afford to pay for a trainer. So I started to research and decided to train her myself. I had previously trained our familys' and friends dogs. I put in hundreds of hours of training to train her and to take and pass 3 AKC certifications tests and to perform the tasks that I needed her to perform as a service dog for me. I found that not only did I enjoy it I was good at it. So I decided to open a small business to help others with their dogs.
