What This Might Look Like For You
Pulling on the leash
Does it seem like your dog doesn't understand what a leash is? Maybe they even have pulled you or a family member over. We can help your dog learn to walk politely on leash with you and your family.
Barking upsetting neighbors
Whether your neighbors have officially complained or just given you nasty looks, it can be extremely embarrassing to have a dog that's causing trouble with their barking. We can help you and your dog reclaim your calm.
Can't leave your home
Whether your dog destroys things while you're gone or you're worried about your dog hurting themselves, we can help you and your dog find calm again.
Destruction & Chaos
Has your dog chewed up your furniture? Maybe they shredded an important document. Whatever chaos they have caused, we can help you and your dog learn how to set boundaries and enforce them so you can have a better life together.
Jumping & Injuring visitors
Your dog probably doesn't mean to, but maybe they've hurt you or family members by jumping up. Maybe their nails caused injuries. We can help you and your dog figure out how to politely show excitement when people come over.
Many other things...
Whether you're dealing with separation anxiety, a dog who is peeing everywhere (regardless of age), a dog who is afraid of people or other dogs, or something else, we can offer compassionate, force-free help.
No matter what you're dealing with, it can feel completely overwhelming. We can help you find relief.
We help you and your dog learn how to approach whatever problem is occurring and how to work towards other, better behaviors so you can be happy around your dog instead of stressed.
How we can help you and your dog find your joy
Through force-free training that uses the most up-to-date science, we can help you and your dog overcome nearly any problem.
Customized Training & Support
You and your dog are unique as is your living situation so your training solution should be as unique as you. Doggy Stars will use our knowledge and experience to not only help you and your dog, but help you in a way that works best for you.
LOTS of Support, During and After Training Sessions
We want you and your dog to succeed so we want to help you however you best learn. That's why we offer session summary emails to go over everything we covered, text check-ins to answer any questions that might have popped up while we're not there, recorded video review because your dog will act differently when your trainer isn't there and it can help to have your trainer's feedback and advice on those moments, an online support group, and even the option to have a check-in virtual session.
1-on-1 Training and Advice
Group classes are often cheaper, but the trainer's attention is split between many people and their dogs and the training will almost always be very generic with only minor help offered to you. Doggy Stars offers 1-on-1 training so that you get our trainers' full attention and support for the full hour, allowing all the training to be personalized to your individual needs and wants.
Flexible Availability
Doggy Stars offers availability mornings, afternoons, and evenings Monday through Friday. You can book dog training sessions directly through our website, but if you're not seeing an availability that matches with yours, feel free to reach out to us, there is a good chance that we can work with you to find a day and time that works for you.

Training Philosophy
(And why it matters!)
You want what is best for your dog and your life and so do we. Since dog training is unregulated, it can be hard to determine if a dog trainer will fit your values while helping you on this journey.
Compassion
Care and love center our training philosophy. We want your dog to learn to listen and be able to better regulate, but not at the expense of their personality or happiness. That's why compassion is an important part of how we train.
L.I.M.A.
LIMA stands for Least Invasive, Minimally Aversive. What this means is that we focus on humane training methods and what we want your dog TO do, but we are knowledgeable with a wide range of techniques and tools and will use what works best for you and your dog.
Science
We make sure to stay up to date on canine science and the most recent canine behavior research. And we want to make sure you can understand that, as well, to help you understand your dog and their needs.
Efficient
Dog training takes time, but we understand that both time and money are limited. So we make sure that we're doing everything as efficiently as possible so that you can get the most for your time and money.
Fun
If you enjoy something, you're more likely to remember it and your dog is the same! So we want to make sure that you and your dog are learning, but also able to have fun and remember everything we go over.
Customized
Every dog is different as is every life and home. We want to make sure to set you and your dog up for success. So every training plan and training summary is personalized to you. We customize everything so that you and your dog can achieve your goals.
