Have a question that isn't answered here? Feel free to contact us.
What type of training do you do?
We offer pet dog training meaning we that train dogs to be good family companions. Our classes
and private sessions are geared toward teaching dogs how to behave appropriately at home and
in real life situations. We do not offer specialized training such as competition obedience training,
confirmation, assistance or therapy dog training, or protection dog training.
How old should my puppy be to start training?
The sooner the better! We accept puppies for training starting at 8 weeks of age. So that means if
you are interested in private training, we can begin training your puppy as soon as you bring him/her
home. If you want to bring your puppy to a group class, ask your veterinarian what vaccinations s/he
recommends before signing up for our classes.
What kind of methods do you use?

Do you use treats in your training?
Yes we do! And anything else that motivates your dog such as verbal praise, petting, and toys.
What breeds do you work with?
We train ALL breeds and mixes! We've worked with everything from Chihuahuas to Great Danes, Poodles to Pit Bulls.
Do you work with blind or deaf dogs?
Yes! Blind or deaf dogs are every bit as trainable as other dogs and we can modify our training techniques to meet their needs.
Do you offer a guarantee on your training?
No and you should be wary of anyone who does. A dog is a living, breathing being - not a toaster or a vacuum cleaner. Numerous things
influence how a dog behaves: his genetics, breed traits, the environment he's raised in, early socialization, and the length of time the problem
has been occurring just to name a few. Then there's the human on the other end of the leash. The owner's willingness to comply with our
training advice and actual training ability also play a significant role in the overall outcome of the training program. These are things that we
cannot control, therefore offering a guarantee or guaranteeing specific results would be both impossible and unethical. As a member of the
Association of Pet Dog Trainers, we are not permitted to offer guarantees on training per their Code of Ethics.
We do however guarantee to provide you with the highest quality dog training services at all times and operate our business with the highest
level of professionalism, honesty, and reliability. We are always available to answer any and all questions you have between training
sessions, via phone or email.

My dog has bitten a person OR is aggressive toward people or other dogs. Can you help me?
We accept aggressive dogs on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us and we'll determine if we can help you. When we accept a client
with an aggressive dog, we will help you do everything reasonably possible to safely manage and change your dog's behavior. However, we
expect you as the dog's owner to follow our advice and maintain careful management to keep other people and dogs safe. This is your
responsibility as a dog owner - a biting dog is very serious and presents a liability. If at any time we feel an owner is not following our advice
and/or is not managing an aggressive dog in the way we believe is best, we will terminate the training relationship.

We are often asked about our training fees...
Dog training fees vary as much as the methods and philosophies of trainers. Our fees are very competitive for the greater Pittsburgh area.
One of our greatest concerns when setting fees is ensuring our training is affordable for the average family, especially when it comes to
severe behavior problems that require more than one session. To that end, we offer our training sessions on a "pay as you go" format and do
not require clients purchase large numbers of sessions upfront. Sorry but in order to keep our fees affordable we do not accept credit cards.
