Dog Training and Dog Behavior Services

Frustrated by living with an untrained dog? Or does your dog have behavioral issues? We can help your dog become the companion you’ve always wanted. Custom-tailored solutions for each individual dog and family are our specialty. Whether you’re struggling with behavior problems such as aggression or leash reactivity, feeling overwhelmed with a new puppy, or just hoping to improve your dog’s obedience skills, we can help. 

Both outdoor and in-home sessions are available for clients in the Asheville area, and remote sessions are also available if you’re not nearby. Trish is fully vaccinated against Covid 19 and is happy to wear a face mask as well.

We will work only on the issues you need help with – you can still give your dog affection, let her sniff while walking on leash, and snuggle on the sofa or in bed together. Dog training doesn’t have to involve shouting commands or marching back and forth in heel position – positive reinforcement training creates a dog who wants to work with you, and who enjoys doing what you ask!
