Our Services
Every family is unique, so we’ll work with you to create the training package that fits your needs. Here’s a quick overview of the kind of training services we offer.
Puppy Training
Puppies begin developing their personalities right away, just like human babies. Create a bond of trust as soon as you bring your little one home!
Basic Manners
Dogs don’t come wired knowing how to live in our human world, we need to teach them. Basic manners will help your dog learn to be a polite, well-behaved member of your community.
Behavior Modification
Hyperactivity, fear, anxiety, reactivity and aggression. Consulting with a professional is much more effective than trying to figure it out alone.
Virtual Training
Remote training is ideal for behavior cases, and for families who are not comfortable meeting in person. This type of training is extremely effective for any case!
Puppy Board & Train
Our fully customizable board and train service is ideal for busy families who would like their puppy full immersed in a bespoke program in a professional trainer’s home. Your puppy will live and learn with us for several weeks!

Fear-Free Methods
In their published position statement, the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB) states that “Reward-based learning offers the most advantages and least harm to the learner’s welfare.”
Custom Training Packages
We’ll discuss your family’s priorities during your first complimentary phone consult, and then we can create a tailored training plan just for you.
KPA-CTP & CPDT Certified
We all expect that a hired professional has undergone proper training, but many dog trainers are self-appointed. Yasmin has earned the Dog Trainer Professional certification through the prestigious, international Karen Pryor Academy as well as the Certified Professional Dog Trainer through the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers.
Testimonials
Yasmin has helped me to better understand what is driving certain behaviors in my rescue pup, Macy, and how to address them in a loving, kind, and respectful way. She uses positive and gentle training techniques that Macy responded to almost immediately. Within the last 2 months Yasmin helped me to understand and implement necessary (and fairly simple) changes to our home and routine that have made all the difference in helping Macy adjust to her new family. I'm so grateful for the tools she has given us!

Daisy is doing absolutely amazing! She’s 1000% a puppy finally, and she’s happy. You can tell she feels safe and content now. Artemis and her getting along great now!
BeckyDaisy’s mom
Yasmin is such a wonderful trainer! I never liked the idea of frightening or punishing my pets, so her positive reinforcement method was perfect for us. We've been following her advice with how to introduce Billie to new people, and she is so much more calm and comfortable with guests now, thanks to her coaching. Highly recommend!
AbigailBillie’s mom
