Why we’re Karen Pryor Academy educated
and why should you care
We chose the Karen Pryor Academy because it is widely considered the most rigorous and science-based school for dog trainers. Also requiring that we learn how to train other species of animals as this training method applies to any living organism whether it’s a horse, a fish or a cat! The Karen Pryor Academy also holds its certified trainers accountable to the highest standards of training and client care and this is of utmost importance to us as we want the best for our clients and their pets, so we demand the best of ourselves. For us, this means the most modern education and a commitment to continuing education and professional development – KPA CTP certification requirements that are happily complied with in our mission to provide the most effective training services possible.

Reward-based dog training changes behavior quickly and painlessly, without yelling, threats, or punishment. It is grounded in the principles of behavioral science and is the training method endorsed by all reputable veterinary and behavioral organizations. With clicker training, you get a well-behaved dog who enjoys the training process – which means both results and peace of mind for you.
While it is considered professionally unethical to guarantee training results (how can you guarantee the behavior of another living being?), we do guarantee that you will work with a highly credentialed mentor motivated to help you reach your training goals. We guarantee we’ll use only the most humane, modern, and scientifically proven reward-based training methods to reach those goals. And we guarantee training with us will be a fun and positive experience for both you and your dog.
