Meet Your Dog Trainer

Hello! Aren't dogs awesome?! For me, it was while working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility that I became fascinated with dog psychology and animal communication! I went on to become a certified trainer, and since then, I've worked for multiple dog training companies. I have successfully trained hundreds of dogs across all breeds and behavioral issues. I've also worked in an array of K9 handling disciplines including: Search & Rescue, detection, bite work, and more! If it involves a dog, I've probably tried it!

Our Balanced Training Approach

Treats

Treats & food are an essential aspect of the human/dog relationship. Since every dog has the primal need to eat, this provides an obvious opportunity to shape behavior. With treats, we can "lure" the dog into a position that will eventually be paired with a verbal command (e.g. sit, down, etc.). This is the foundation for most of dog training since dogs became man's best friend.

Clicker

A clicker is a very simple tool that quickly advances the learning process! The use of a consistent noise is the very thing that Pavlov proved with his bell experiments. With the "click" sound, we can pinpoint behaviors, or positions, that would otherwise be difficult to reward immediately. A clicker tells the dog "Whatever you were doing when you heard the click is what I wanted! A reward is coming soon."

eCollar

The eCollar is probably the most misunderstood dog training tool out there. The eCollar is NOT a shock collar but rather a TENs unit. I encourage you to try it yourself (on your hand), so you can know exactly what your dog will be feeling!
The eCollar is not a punishment, but rather a  means of nonverbal communication  — especially helpful for off-leash training.

Slip-Lead

A slip lead is used often in the dog-rescue world. Not only  can it be helpful to stop the dog from pulling, but more importantly, it prevents the dog from "slipping" their collar off. Dogs can easily get spooked and try to back out of a normal collar. The slip lead is a crucial safety tool when taking dogs out in public.  

Prong Collar

A prong collar is another misunderstood tool for dog training. One of the best forms of communication to a canine is through the neck. If you watch puppies play, they will always go for the neck when roughhousing. This is why we as humans have created so many training collars. The prong collar is another means of communicating with the dog in a way they understand.

Lots of Love

The relationship between the dog and human must come first before all else.
Quality training should be built on a bond of respect and partnership. I always begin training with an evaluation of the dog's emotional and mental state in order to determine the appropriate next steps for that dog. Then, it's essential to include plenty of play and lots of love along the way!

This high-drive Labrador lives part-time on a sailboat! With all the travel her family does, being reliable off-leash is essential.

A Golden Retriever is the perfect family dog, but sometimes the over-excitement can be too much to handle! With some new skills learned, her and her family found their rhythm!

Buster & Fig

These two housemates used to feed off of each other's bad behavior. After working with them separately and together, their owner can now take them both out for regular excursions!

Every training journey starts with its own set of challenges, but the mission remains the same: helping owners gain clarity, control, and confidence with their dogs. With the right structure and consistency, chaos and uncertainty are replaced with clear expectations and reliable behavior. The result is a calmer home, more enjoyable outings, and a deeper bond between you and your dog.

Happy Dogs. Happy People.

Sonia Hancock

Tyler literally changed our lives with the training he did [...] As a business owner, with any service I need rendered I am always looking for the one person to get the job done, who is the best at what they do. Tyler is that guy when it comes to training dogs.
Rob Benson
Boxer + Malinois, Owner
"Tyler is an incredible dog trainer who truly understands that great training starts with helping the owners, not just the dogs. [...] Every session felt personalized, and he answered every question to help us fully understand each lesson that was taught.
David Chenette
Poodle, Owner
"Couldn’t recommend Tyler’s training services enough. First time puppy owners we were in way over our heads [...] Tyler helped us understand our dog and showed us how to focus her energy in good productive ways.[...] Tyler is a great choice for your trainer.

Shelley Pennington
German Shepherd Mix, Owner
Tyler was fantastic with our Malinois puppy! He was great when helping with socialization issues and checks in frequently to see if we have any questions or need any other help.
Aly Van
Belgian Malinois, Owner
