Our in-home dog training is the one of our fastest growing training packages simply because of the variety of affordable training choices you get to choose from without leaving your home. Our latest feature for in-home dog training packages includes a trainer coming to your home with or without the owner being present. For instance, we would evauluate your dog on the first visit and fill out necassary paperwork and find out what your expectations are form the training program. Once we decide if your dog will need basic obedience, advanced obedience, and/or behavior modification then the training begins. If you decide not to be present for the training sessions at your home then we can decide how many visits per week you would like for us to schedule your training!

Many times while walking along a road, you will come across a cute or handsome dog being walked by his owner, and you will want to go upto them and pet them.

This may be dangerous. First, look at the dog. Does he look happy, or afraid? A dog can be nervous of strangers and can react oddly out of fear. It usually helps to ask the owner - "Is he friendly?", and if she says yes, you can usually go ahead and make friendly overtures - but not too friendly if you sense that the dog isn't ready yet.

I'm going to share a secret with you. Most of us would have at some point or the other, encountered a small dog on a leash that growls ferociously at us as we walk by. It will strain the chain, and make as if it was wishing it were free.

Dalmatians make wonderful family companions. This is a type of dog that will fit nicely to whatever your way of life. His medium size is suitable for apartment living, while at the same time a true sporting dog at heart, therefore a great addition to your country or suburban home. In addition, the Dalmatian is an excellent guarddog who is very sensible and alert but not a hysterical barker. He is therefore a dog whose bark is to be respected and investigated! If your Dalmatian sounds a “danger alarm,” you can be sure that there is a good reason for it, such as the approach of a stranger. He is initially cautious of strangers and not automatically everyone’s friend. Often referred to as courteous dogs, he greets visitors to your home with quiet dignity but at the same time with reserve.
