THE SANE CANINE
Private Dog Training in Ventura County, CA
ABOUT ME
My name is Abby and I am the founder and trainer at The Sane Canine. My passion for animals started when I was very young, and led me to pursue a BA in Animal Behavior from Bucknell University. While in college I completed a full-time internship at the Penn Vet Working Dog Center, a facility that trains police, search and rescue, and detection dogs. Additionally, I fostered and volunteered for a rescue for retired police and military contract dogs. Through this work, I gained experience in teaching crazy, high energy working dogs to become relaxed home companions. After finishing my bachelor's, I moved from PA to CA to train Disaster Search and Rescue Dogs. I believe that everyone should live in harmony with their dogs. I want to teach you how to teach your dog to be the very best they can be!
ABOUT THE TRAINING
SERVICES
Does your dog bolt when the door is opened? Yank you down the street on a walk? Lunge at other dogs? I am here to help! Leash walking, reactivity, obedience, being calm in the home, allowing handling and grooming, and politely greeting guests are just a few examples of things I can help you with. Training is done through one hour private sessions at your house. My specialty is turning your unruly dog into a perfect companion.
TRAINING PHILOSOPHY
Every dog is different, and training is about figuring out what works best for your dog. My training is built on a foundation of positive reinforcement, and I request that every client have a treat pouch or fanny pack before our first lesson. The other tools we use for your dog will depend on each dog's specific needs and can include slip leads, head halters, prong collars, or Starmark collars.
Turning You Into a Dog Trainer...
During each training session we will discuss your goals and then practice techniques that allow you to reach your goal. After, I will email you 'homework' which will outline what we practiced during your session. In order to see a real change in your dog you will need to practice your homework daily between each of our training sessions. Be ready to spend 10-30 minutes a day working with your dog!
