Tao Of The Dog

Specialties

Our philosophy is simple — offer premium dog training and behavior modification services at an affordable price to everyone.

Training sessions take place in your home, with you there observing and participating throughout the entire session. We believe that this is the best and most permanent way of training you and your dog. A diligent owner who spends the time in between sessions working with their dog (s) using the methods and techniques we use in our training session will most certainly minimize the number of sessions they will need. This will save the client money in the long run.

History

Established in 2001.

At the age of 19, I decided to take my savings, give my two weeks notice and go pursue my passion, my calling if you will. I enrolled in a dog-​training program that taught me the fundamentals of training dogs to assist persons with mobility disabilities and offered hands on approach to training my first Assistance Dog. It was an intensive and extensive training program and it was the most satisfying experience of my life. At the end of the program, I successfully placed a fantastic Assistance Dog named Charlie with a well-​deserving life companion.

One aspect of dog training that I truly felt needed to be addressed was the availability of services to all dog owners. I decided to start my own practice based on principles outside of the mainstream canine training business. Thus, Tao of the Dog was born.

One aspect of dog training that I truly felt needed to be addressed was the availability of services to all dog owners. I have spoken with too many dog owners that have unresolved issues with their dogs’ behavior but are unwilling or cannot afford the standard, high price of proper training and behavior modification. I decided to start my own practice based on principles outside of the mainstream canine training business. Thus, Tao of the Dog was born.

Since then, dog owners that would have otherwise opted to forgo training or could not afford training; have received premium dog training and behavior modification services at a very affordable price. I take great pride in my dog training and will continue to offer my services at affordable-​to-​all pricing to ensure that our dogs are part of the solution, not the problem.
