Here at Waterdogs we offer balanced, motivational “positive-first” training that goes far beyond the 101 basics.
We believe in rewarding the good behavior and correcting the unwanted behavior through proper guidance and clear communication
A well trained dog is a happy and healthy dog, as well as crucial part of your overall happiness and quality of life as a dog owner. That’s why we not only train your dog, but we also work hard to TRAIN YOU! Learning how to properly communicate with your dog is key to strengthening the bond between you.
We’ll help you fully understand how your dog thinks and what motivates them to work. We focus on real world training that will help empower ALL members of your family to get the same results. If you are struggling getting control of your dog in any situation, we can help!
THIS IS NOT YOUR “BASIC” DOG TRAINING
If you’re looking for basic training, you’re in the wrong place.
The truth is, anyone can teach a puppy to sit and shake hands. We focus on developing valuable life skills that your dog can carry with them throughout life. Allowing them to be the dog they were meant to be and want to be.
Our training is clear, precise and effective, developed from over 25+ years of research, training and experience working with thousands of dogs.
Our training will get you the dog of your dreams BUT you’ll have to be willing to work just as hard as your dog.
WANT TO TAKE YOUR DOG ANYWHERE?
Whether you live an active outdoor lifestyle or just enjoy chilling on the patio, our training programs are perfect for anyone willing to put in the work and do what it takes to get the dog of their dreams.
Want a happy dog who listens to you?
