Behavior Consultation
Our in-home behavior consultations address complex issues like aggression and separation anxiety. Certified professionals observe pets in their natural environment, develop customized treatment plans, and provide three months of follow-up support. This comprehensive approach ensures lasting behavioral improvements through humane, science-based methods.
Private Training
Tailored training sessions focus on obedience, house training, and behavioral modification. Certified trainers work with puppies and adult dogs in your home environment, using positive reinforcement techniques to address specific challenges while building stronger human-pet relationships through consistent, ethical training practices.
Puppy Socialization
Specialized programs develop proper social skills in young puppies. Structured sessions focus on positive exposure to new environments, people, and animals, preventing future behavioral issues while establishing foundational obedience through reward-based training methodologies.
Obedience Training
Comprehensive obedience programs teach essential commands and impulse control. Certified trainers use positive reinforcement to develop reliable recall, leash manners, and household manners, creating well-adjusted pets through consistent, science-backed training techniques adapted to each dog's learning style.
Aggression Management
Specialized interventions address reactive and aggressive behaviors through systematic desensitization. Certified professionals create customized behavior modification plans that identify triggers, implement counter-conditioning techniques, and establish safer interactions between pets and their environment using force-free methods.

Report
Best trainer in the Denver area. We interviewed a lot of trainers before settling with Christine. We chose her because of the glowing review she had from our vet and how nice she was when we asked our thousand questions of her. We are very pleased with the obedience class that we took for our new husky puppy. Living in Denver it is so important to have a well trained dog and Christine will give you the tools to help shape a great well trained dog.
I loved going to our class and so did our puppy. I really appreciated that she made us pass a test at the end of the class because it really is not the dogs fualt if you do not take the time to train them. We will be signing up for the obedience 2 class I am sure. Thank you Christine and pup-e-ssori.
