Whether it's in your home or in a group setting, I will teach you how to communicate with your dog to reach your individual goals.

Private Training: In Home or at Donna's Facility

If you have a behavioral issue or need help with general obedience, I will provide one-on-one training where it works best for you.

Help is here! Training issues such as:

• Puppy Basics: from Potty Training, Chewing to Controlling your new buddy on a leash, I have just the Puppy Protocol Plan for you!
  
• Basic Manners: leash pulling, polite greetings, counter surfing, sock stealing just to name a few
  
• Basic Obedience: Sit, Down, Stay, Come, Heel, Leave-it, Drop-it and Settle
  
• Canine Good Citizen Preparation 
  
• Loose Leash Walking
  
• I'm Afraid to Walk My Dog!: Reactive Dogs on Leash (it's more common than you think.)
  
• Barky Bowzers! Find out why your dog feels the need to bark and take steps to restoring peace and quiet to your home
  
• Fraidy Fidos! Desensitizing fearful and anxious dogs
  
• Adoption of a Shelter/Rescue Dog. Learn what to expect and how to ease the transition into your home.
  
• Tricks: Want your dog to get his own leash or your keys? Have fun teaching your dog how!
  
• Beginning Scent Work for fun and mental stimulation.
  

​Private sessions are held in your home, at Donna's Training facility and outside in public spaces, depending on the nature of your goals. Sessions are generally an hour long, spaced at least a week apart.  We want to provide you with plenty of time to work on the exercises and management techniques covered during each lesson. You will receive unlimited email support as well as handouts and homework during the course of your training.

Donna's Puppy Package

Got Puppy?  Need Socialization?  Donna is here to help!​

Designed for puppies 6 months and under,  trainer-to-handler course covers the basics of beginner obedience, using different environments and real life scenarios. With a focus on attention, and relationship building, this program will give you and your puppy the foundational skill to a bright training future. Exercises covered may include: name games, sit, down, target touch, puppy push ups, stay, recall and loose leash walking, “choosing to heel”, and place/ mat work.  During these private sessions you will also be getting personal attention in addressing your specific concerns with the adjustment of a new puppy in your home! 

​Puppy Playtime- Starting Sunday & Friday Mornings in April

It's so important that puppies get the proper socialization during their development periods.  However, it's not as easy as bringing your pup to a dog park or single dog event.  HOW you socialize is critical to determining how they will interact with the world as adults.  At Donna's playgroups, you will learn how to read your puppy's body language so you know if they are scared, overwhelmed or being to rough. You will practice teaching your dog to come when called and play some fun training games.

Day Training,  "While You're at Work"

We begin each behavior case with a phone call or email conversation to gain an understating of the situation through a series of questions and a brief history.

In-Home Evaluation
A 60-90 minute visit in your home with your dog and the family. During this visit we conduct a behavioral evaluation, take a history and talk about  your goals.  By the end of the meeting, we will create a program best suited to your lifestyle. Training will be conducting in your home and at Donna's in Norwell.

Adolescent to Adult Dogs

If you have specific issues or you just want a well mannered pup, Donna's programs get your dog on track.

Your dog will learn: Sit, Down, Stay, Touch, Come, Leave It, Heel, and Settle, Place.    Additional advanced training is an option after this course has been completed, on an individual basis.
