IN-HOME DOG TRAINING

FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY!

$280 for 1.50 hours (1 dog)

$400 for 2 hours (2 dogs)  

Training your dog starts at your home and this is why I'd recommend for you to try my 1.50 Hr In-Home Training where I come to your home and work with everyone in your family including children (if any). 


My In-Home Training includes loose leash walking where I will take you and your dog around your neighborhood and address your dog's leash pulling, grabbing of the leash and jumping on other people. We'll also go through various training exercises in your home focusing on your dog's specific behavior and obedience concerns; such as, mouthing, jumping, barking, potty issues, crate training and more!

We Specialize In Improving Reactivity

We specialize at improving and countering dog reactivity towards other dogs, people, and things. Everyday we work with dogs who suffer from t​he same discomfort. Their fears make walks difficult for the both of you and it’s not as uncommon as you think. We’ve worked with hundreds of dog families just like yours to make dog walks more manageable and fun. Don’t give up! There is work to be done! Let dOgBEDIENCE personally coach you along the way. Find out below if your dog is Reactive or Aggressive.

About Me

In 2009, I adopted a 4 month old Rottie who became my inspiration in training dogs. My then newly adopted pup was born with a chronic auto immune disease (Addison's) and a challenging behavior. It wasn't easy for my family in the beginning but I could not and would not give up on him. He lived for 7 years and he paid me back a thousandfold. ... 

It's like a miracle! Two days later, he's still like a whole new dog!


Jennifer, Reston VA

We loved working with Michael. He was funny, considerate, 

and always looking for ways to make our lives better. 

He was great with our dog, and always very supportive. 

The lessons he taught us will help us with every dog we adopt from here on out.
