Dog Virtuoso is on a mission to change the way dog owners view dog training. Dog training is not just about "fixing the dog." The Dog is not broken. Genuine Dog Training is about the fulfillment of the dog. It's not just for dogs that exhibit nuisance behaviors. Nuisance behaviors are often symptoms of dogs that have not been Physically & Psychologically Challenged. Dog Training is also for "good dogs" with no issues. Imagine if we applied this way of thinking onto kids. Imagine if someone said: "Molly is awesome, why would we teach her tennis?" How about this one: "Jimmy doesn't cause problems, why should he learn chess?" Your dog deserves to feel a sense of accomplishment. In addition to resolving behavioral issues, I'll also introduce something fulfilling for your fur baby! This might be a scent discrimination game for dogs. Or, it may be a dog sport such as agility.

Second Act Dog Training: Specializing in re-homed and adopted dogs… Because there are lots of Second Acts in American lives.​ My passion is helping people develop the best possible relationship with their canine family members. Bringing a new dog into your life is a great joy -- but it can also be a big challenge. All dogs are individuals and come with their own personalities, abilities, likes and dislikes, skills and quirks. And, if they're rescues, they come with everything they've learned in life so far: some good things and some not-so-good things. I've been working with (and living with!) shelter dogs for over a decade and I understand the challenges and joys of opening your heart and your home to these wonderful, deserving animals. My goal to is to give you the tools you need to understand your dog and to help you communicate with her in a positive and humane way. Training should be fun: something both you and your dog look forward to! You can learn how to replace behavior you DON'T want -- like jumping -- with behavior you DO want -- like sitting politely -- through Positive reinforcement training. Positive reinforcement isn't just about giving your dog lots of cookies. And it's not about "bribes." A reinforcement can be anything your dog loves: play, affection, a chance to go sniff or dig or chase a ball. I will show you how to use the things your dog loves to strengthen the behaviors you want.Science shows us that positive choice-based training has better, longer-lasting results than old-fashioned force-based training. And common sense tells us that a dog who trusts us and finds joy in training is happier and more emotionally stable than a dog who fears us and works because he doesn’t want to get punished. ​

My name is Vanessa Reinoso and I am a graduate of Animal Behavior College where I earned my certification as an ABC Certified Dog Trainer.  Animal Behavior College (ABC) is approved by the Bureau for Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education and is an internationally recognized school.  My year-long commitment to this program has provided me with a formal education in canine obedience training and understanding behavior and its motives. My certification, education, and experience provide me the skills required to effectively and humanely train your dog while keeping alive the spark that makes your dog so special to you.

Rebecca (Becki) Klinger is a former Lodging Supervisor for Dog Daycare Facility. It was during her time working at the Daycare Facility that she realized to what extent it was that dog’s needed to be understood and spoken for. With a hunger for knowledge she was driven to seek higher education in dog behavior and training through top rated courses in the Pet Professional field provided by e-Trainingfordogs. In 2015 Rebecca graduated from Animal Behavior College Dog Training Program. 2017 marked the year she became certified as an Animal Behavior Consultant. In 2018 she founded her own LLC, Canine Kismet which focus’ its training efforts towards Service and Therapy Dogs. Never fear though, Rebecca also understands the vital role family dogs have and also provides foundation training for them as well. Rebecca is currently working on completing her BA in Animal Sciences from Unity College and will be graduating in June of 2023; she will go on to study Animal Science & Behavior to then obtain her MS from Unity College.

I specialize in training puppies to be great dogs.

I have lived and worked with my own dogs all my life. I grew up with Saint Bernards. We breed one of our females and ended up having 8 beautiful puppies. I have always loved having and being with all kind of animals, but of course my favorite being the dogs. After working 30+ years in the insurance world and then going through cancer, I decided life was too short and it was time for me to do my real calling, helping and training dogs and their parents. I’m now a Certified dog trainer through Animal Behavior College.

Providing private and group sessions for dog and puppy manners (obedience) and dogs with reactivity and other behavioral issues. I am both CCPDT and Animal Behavior College certified. I have a Master’s in Education which helps me to design a program that is most effective for you and your dog. I am currently working in the Behavior Department at the Erie County SPCA. I do assessments, behavior modification with shy, fearful and/or aggressive dogs. Previously, I spent 7 years as a Dog Enrichment volunteer under the Behavior Dept. at the SPCA. I am at a Level 3, which is the highest level. I use only scientifically-based methods that have been tested to be efficient and humane. One of the cornerstones to how I train is developing your dog’s ability to focus on you when needed. Whether it’s teaching obedience, agility or getting your dog to move away from potentially harmful situations, focusing is the key element in having success in these areas.

Pawsitive Center practices Positive Reinforcement and Negative Punishment training, this method focuses on teaching and rewarding correct behavior rather than punishing bad behavior. Dog training should be about understanding and trust. We use treats, toys and praise (whatever your dog finds as a valuable reward) to make training a fun and successful experience. Group classes assist with socialization and learning behaviors with the distraction of other people and dogs which can relate to real life scenarios while at the vet, out for a walk or just having people over your house. In addition to group classes we offer private training sessions, because we know with hectic schedules it can be difficult to find time to load up your dog and drive to a group class so we come to you. Private lessons offer one on one training in the dog’s environment. We also provide dog walking and pet sitting. Daily exercise is so important to a dog’s instinctual needs, a lot of undesirable behaviors can stem from boredom. Dogs that get daily exercise are happier and healthier dogs!

Pawsitive Dog Training Enjoy the convenience of having your dog trained in your own home. I will work with you and your family members on learning basic training exercises while I work with your furry family member. I believe in training dogs with kindness,compassion, and positive reinforcement. In this way, your dog will obey you because it wants to please you and not out of fear of negative consequences. A well-trained dog will offer you many years of loving companionship.

My name is Nicole and I recently graduated from Animal Behavior College in 2014 with a certification in dog training. I also studied Cat Management and Training, Pet Nutrition and Diet, Pet Massage and Training Shelter Dogs. To pay the bills, I work full-time at an online printing company and have a bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design from SUNY Oswego. To feed my passion, I volunteer my time with animals. I volunteered with a local animal rescue group for over 5 years. I was involved with everything from cleaning litter boxes at Petco to processing adoption applications to coordinating the dog team to being a board member. And I loved every minute of it. While I still support the animal rescue world, I had developed an interest in learning more about animal behaviors to help educate new and experienced pet owners.

Recently Certified Dog Trainer

I am finally doing what I love! Working with owners and their dogs to create the best relationship possible for them both.

Hello! My name is Kristine and I am the owner of True Companion Pet Care. I am a graduate of Animal Behavior College with a certification in Dog Training. I am extremely passionate about dogs, their care, and their well-being. Several years back, when I was a Dog Coordinator for a local rescue group in my area, I saw firsthand just how many dogs were relinquished by their owners to shelters and rescue groups due to behavior issues. Many of their behavior issues could have been corrected if they had a professional trainer to work with them. Sadly, hundreds never make it out of the shelters. Behavior issues are the main reason dogs end up in shelters. I realized that I had to do something to make a difference and reduce those numbers! That is what inspired me to become a dog obedience trainer. I began training shelter dogs to increase their chances for adoption and to live a happy, healthy life. I am a positive reinforcement trainer, certified, bonded, background checked and first aid/CPR certified for dogs. I do not use prong collars, shock collars or choke collars when I train, nor do I use any form of physical punishment whatsoever. As a Certified Dog Obedience Trainer, I offer private obedience training and behavior modification in your home. Private training sessions can be especially beneficial for dogs with anxiety issues; for dogs that are easily distracted in a room full of other dogs and people; for puppies who have not yet been fully vaccinated yet and cannot attend group training; for families who would like all members, including their children, present during training sessions; for families with scheduling conflicts (I can accommodate your schedule and come to you on weekdays, weeknights, and/or weekends). With private training, your dog will receive one on one attention and the curriculum will be personalized to cover the areas that you and your dog need the most. You will receive supporting documentation after every session. My methods of tr

b Kehoskie’s K-9 Care /b I “Specializing in making training a positive experience for you and your dog” Obedience Training Behavioral Corrections Pet Sitting After working in the corporate world for the past 26 years, I decided to do something different with my life. I left my job in 2006 and volunteered at the FLSPCA. Working around animals made me realize that I could make a big difference in their lives. It has been estimated that approx. 60% of dogs in animal shelters are there due to unruly behavior. I wanted the opportunity to help them have a second chance in life, so I enrolled in ABC’s Dog Obedience Instructor Training program. I chose this program because, along with the curriculum that teaches students to understand what motivates a dog’s behavior, it included hands-on training. We’ll work on becoming a good pack leader through proper, positive and effective feeding, sleeping, house access and playing rituals and tactics.
