Hold'n On Dog Training

We can help YOU and your dog.

Our mission is to help and educate as many families as possible and save family dogs from being given away, surrendered to shelters, or being put down due to misunderstood behaviors.

Our approach is simple, train a balanced state of mind, this is achievable for dogs and owners alike. We take a no-nonsense approach with basic obedience and teach the dogs that we “humans” will make their decisions for them, taking the stress away from having to make every decision dramatically changes the thinking pattern of your dog. ?They will rely on you more as a leader and in turn, be able to have a calm attitude when faced with obstacles in everyday life.

In this country there are 4-6 million dogs are euthanized each year, though this is a very sad and disturbing number it doesn't have to be that way. We hope to change that number with proper training of family dogs and owners.?

Using a Yes or No baseline is the simplest way to achieve new behaviors. Do we use reward-based training? Yes, but we also use a correction base for behaviors we do not want. Our program is 90% reward, 10% correction. We want to showcase the behaviors we like and want to see and ensure we communicate in a language that the dog understands the behaviors we do not want to see. We often find that the destructive behaviors have been reinforced or even created in the home by the owners unintentionally. Don't worry not all is lost! Let's fix it. The best way to make change is to step out of your comfort zone, learning is fun for all involved, owners can breathe a sigh of relief and dogs are more comfortable in their skin, it’s a win-win.

We are huge advocates for the owners!! Happy owners equal happy dogs, which is the goal. Let us help you and your family dog reboot your relationship.
