Tailored Training Programs to Meet Every Need

Puppy Training: Building the Foundations

Puppies are impressionable, and teaching good manners from day one will benefit you both in the long run. Our puppy training programs stress skills that are crucial for a puppy to learn proper socialization, basic obedience, and manners. Give your puppy the building blocks for lifelong success and confidence. We use all positive techniques to teach potty training, crate training, foundation obedience, and proper socialization. We will also assist with setting up schedules, making environmental recommendations (in and out of your home), training techniques, consistency, and continued socialization.

Obedience Training: Enhancing Dog-Owner Communication

It all starts with the basic commands that are why you are here. No matter the age, personality, size, or breed - the stronger the foundation, the stronger the dog. We understand that this isn’t as easy as it sounds. Stress, environment, motivation, and drive, are all factors in success. Our goal is to provide the dog and dog/owner team with the knowledge, structure, and building blocks necessary to thrive in all canine focus areas.

Behavioral Modification: Professional Solutions for Challenging Issues

Behavioral problems erode the bond between a dog and its owner. Barking, leash aggression, counter surfing, fence fighting, and digging, are all examples of unwanted behaviors corrected through training. While “bad” behaviors are self-rewarding in nature, dogs must understand and respect a value-based system that prioritizes rewards and implements consequences. Our proven and customized approach utilizes multiple tools and techniques to redirect behavior to the desired outcome by carefully altering the antecedent (factor leading to the behavior) and the consequence (what happens after the behavior).

— JOHN W.

Chris came highly recommended to us. He took our out of control 8 month high energy puppy and returned a dog that knew how to behave. He taught us how to continue his training so we have a dog that can go anywhere with us. People can’t believe his age as he is so well behaved!

— AUDREY R

I still cant believe what an incredible trainer Chris is! I wanted to start entering into obedience competitions, so I reached out to CTO to learn more commands and sharpen our skills. I cant say enough about Chris and what he was able to teach us. He is a true master, and I HIGHLY recommend him

— KIMBERLY J.

Chris is an AMAZING trainer. After training our puppy and teaching him appropriate behaviors, Chris then worked with me. He showed me how to take charge and not encourage bad behaviors. We are all so much happier now that our puppy is a gentleman.

— JEN & AJ G.

We used Chris for a training session for our Great Dane puppy - Hendrix. He came very very highly recommended from many people in our area. My husband and I were beyond impressed with Chris and all he had to offer.
