Dog is man’s best friend. There is truth to this and let us help you to make your four-legged friend a pleasant addition to your household.

Do you think that your dog is “bad?” Dogs do not do things “just to make you angry…rather they simply follow natural dog behavior rules. Does your dog speak English? No, of course not, no dog does. Nor do they speak any other language for that matter. Think about it. If your dog doesn't even speak your language how can you just assume that they should know exactly how to behave in your house and in society. Dogs can quickly be misunderstood especially given the high standards that we set for them. Training can be a frustrating process if you don't figure out a way to communicate with your dog. Let A Dog's World give you some pointers to help teach English as a second language to your dog.

Phone Consultations
This service is great for people that just want to check in with a trainer to make sure that they are doing the right things for their pets. Any topics can be discussed from housebreaking to loose leash walking and more. Our treatment plan may include simple but detailed instructions over the phone, written instructions via e-mail or recommended books and videos. If you have just a few questions that you need answered and a class setting does not work for you, this may be just the answer that you were looking for.



Articles/Stories
From a Dog's Point of View



“Training does not limit a dog, training frees a dog. My dog is not limited because s/he does what I tell her. She is free: free to ride with me, free to meet people, free to run off lead in the park, free to play with other dogs. The untrained dog is free to sit in the backyard all by itself”
-Sue Ailsby
“In dog training, jerk is a noun, not a verb.”
-Dr. Dennis Fetko
“Ever consider what they must think of us? I mean, here we come back from a grocery store with the most amazing haul- chicken, pork, half cow. They must think we're the greatest hunters on earth!”
-Anne Tyler
“I know that dogs are pack animals, but it's difficult to imagine a pack of standard poodles . . . and if there was such a thing as a pack of standard poodles, where would they rove to? Bloomingdale's?”
-Yvonne Clifford
