Private in-home coaching, training and behavior modification. From puppy training to basic manners to behavior modification (e.g., aggression, fearful, reactivity to dogs/people)
Can anyone recommend a dog trainer, or a good place to take a dog for training?
It's for this little dude. He's come a long way since he left the hobo lifestyle behind over Labor Day, but he needs some fine tuning!

Hi Imelda, I'm on personal leave until the first of the year. The holidays get kind of hectic to start a new training program. Would be happy to chat about your situation the first week of January. 713.203.5388. www.ADogsDharma.com.

Hello everyone. I need recs on a good dog trainer or program for fearful dogs. My friend has a dachshund that gets afraid and snaps at people. They only people she won't bite are my friend and her husband. They cannot leave her anywhere as she will just sit in the corner and shake. They have had her since she was a puppy so no abusive past, but they admit they didn't socialize her enough when she was younger. They want to start working towards getting her happier and better around people for when they eventually have kids. They would NEVER give her up and are instead looking to take proactive steps to give the nervous pup a better life. Thanks!

Dr.Haug is the best! I'm currently working with a client with VERY fearful dog that us seeing Dr.Haug every few months for the medication and overarching behavior modification parts. Then I work with the client and dog monthly for the "everyday" interactions. Please have your friend call me if she'd like to discuss further. 713.203.5388.

I do private in-home dog training: www.ADogsDharma.com. But I'm booked until the new year. If you're looking for group classes, Houston Dog Ranch in Spring Branch is excellent and so is Rover Oaks. My Dog & Me owner/trainer moved to Colorado and closed up shop here.
