Introduction
When you're searching for someone to help with your dog's behavior and training, hire someone with experience and knowledge. If you are looking for results and a common sense approach to training your dogs. Together we will develop a relationship based training plan to address all of your goals. I provide in home training for dogs and their humans. I also can help with behavior modification for issues like nuisance barking, general obedience, aggression, separation anxiety and leash manners as well as new puppy training services. Whatever you are looking for, I have probably already helped someone else with similar concerns. I really enjoy seeing the relief my clients experience when they thought there was no hope or had been told their dogs behavior could not be changed. As a professional with 16 years of experience, I can help when others have failed.

We have had our first training with Pete and our puppy, Tucker! I’m feeling energized and confident our pup will be a good, obedient dog because of the instructions from Pete! We still have more sessions and all the support we could ask for! I definitely recommend!

Pete’s first visit with our dog made a world of difference. On top of that, he was available for consultation when I called him, or he got back to me in a speedy manner. I highly recommend Better Manners’ services
