Personalized Training

ONE ON ONE TRAINING for puppies or adult dogs gives you, your family and your dog the advantage of having your own personal trainer in the comfort of your own home.

Since most of your dogs life will be spent at home, it only makes sense to train your dog in a familiar setting. Puppies are never too young to learn. From the moment you receive your new Puppies you can begin working with them during these formative months that will establish behavior patterns for life.

An older dog is never too old to train either. Most unruly and undesirable habits can be eliminated with behavior modification and obedience training.

Your personal trainer - Tom Beitz will help you to:

* Customized training to meet your families expectations.
* Provide you with an understanding of why some behavior problems occur, and how to solve them.
* Use of both traditional and creative training techniques to help solve everyday problems in your home .
* Training is generally faster when done at home in a comfortable environment.
* More time is spent on individuals needs of the dog owner.
Thomas A. Beitz is available for consultation throughout the Western New York area covering Erie, Chautauqua, and Cattaraugus Counties.
* Tom offers a number of different training programs designed with the house pet in mind from basic and intermediate training to advanced off leash training.

Research has proven that working with your dog in your normal everyday environment is the most effective method of training. Tom is able to observe and evaluate the behavior of your dog to determine the most effective plan of action to accomplish your own personal objectives.

GROUP TRAINING CLASSES

One of the most important aspects of a group training class is that your Puppies or dog will have the opportunity to meet other dogs and people which is commonly referred to as the socialization of your dog. Having a healthy controlled environment to socialize your dog will pay off big dividends in the future social skills of your dog.

The socialization period of your puppies life is generally considered by most behaviorist to be between the age of 4 weeks and 16 weeks of age. This period will play a significant role in the future trainability and emotionality by exposure to novel stimuli, people and other animals. If your older Puppies or dog has problems around other dogs, its never too late to solve those problems. That is what training is designed to do.


Tom offers Socialization Classes and canine good citizen classes from time to time. Call for more information.
