"Tim genuinely shocked us with how well he trained our dog to behave. She has been home for almost a month and has retained everything he taught her. Tim dramatically changed our dog and home life for the better. You would be crazy to use any other dog trainer in our area (we tried), many of whom use much more negative techniques than Tim's calm demeanor and training style. You can tell within 5 minutes just how singularly focused on dog training Tim is, and the results speak to that."

Private Lesson Programs
These one-on-one training sessions allow us to give you our undivided attention and ensure the proper techniques are in place so the lessons learned during training can be continued on outside of the session.
Private lessons are training sessions where we guide you through the training process and show you how to do the hands-on work your dog needs.

Stay and Train Programs
Our custom designed Stay and Train Programs provide you and your dog with a clean slate. By taking them out of their daily environment and into my home, we will be able to use that new environment to teach them a new set of rules to live by. Your dog will live with me and my dogs and receive training multiple times a day. By having this structured lifestyle we will not only be able to teach your dog what to do in a variety of distracting environments, but also what behaviors are acceptable and which ones are not.

The Explorer Program:

There’s nothing quite like enjoying a quiet, peaceful walk with your dog, but when you find yourself constantly following your dog’s nose, when they’re ambling ahead, and your arms are sore, it can feel like anything but enjoyable.
It’s no fun to walk your dog when they’re dragging you around, or worse yet - when you’re worried about what they might do when you see another dog or person! You’d love to just relax and know they’ll listen… and have friends over knowing your dog won’t jump all over them, and won’t bark and go nuts when the doorbell rings. This program is the perfect way to get things started. Together we’ll teach your dog to look to you for direction instead of just listening when they feel like it. Then you’ll be ready to conquer adventures together! Hiking without worrying about what’s coming around the bend, enjoying relaxing days at the park, listening at home reliably, and then you can truly enjoy having a dog again. This program is typically accomplished in about 4 weeks (with weekly lessons at your house) and includes:

"I never thought he could walk like this"
- Olivia Lucero, Yonkers, NY After months of being dragged down sidewalks as Ginger pulled on leash, Olivia was able to enjoy taking her dog for a walk after just two lessons. |
Coming home from a long day at work can make finding the time to train your dog hard. Exhausted and ready to kick back and relax, you find your faithful companion jumping with joy that you’re home and ready for action. Our Stay and Train Programs will not only give you a huge jump start on making those changes you want, but they’ll provide you and your dog with a clean slate. We’ll use my home as a fresh start to teach them a new set of rules to live by. Your dog will live with me and my dogs and receive training multiple times a day. By having this structured lifestyle, we will not only be able to teach your dog what to do in a variety of distracting environments, but also what behaviors are acceptable and which ones are not.
The Wayward Dog Program: (2 Week Stay + Lessons for You)
|
Want your dog to listen to you without the hard work? Let us do the hard work for you! This program will give you all the benefits of our Explorer program in half the time because we’ll take care of your dog’s initial training, and then just teach you how to maintain it.
Your dog will come to stay with us for 2 weeks so we can teach them everything they need to know… All in the comfort of a home environment with a professional dog trainer (instead of a loud, crowded boarding kennel!). Imagine your dog coming to you and sitting in front of you every time you call, even around distractions. Everyone at the park will be so impressed! On top of that, no more pulling you on the leash, jumping on your guests, nipping at the kids, barking at the window, chewing things around the house, or stealing things from the counters. This program gives you a happy and attentive dog that listen the first time, every time you give a command. Our 2 Week Stay and Train Includes:

The North Star Program: (4 Week Stay + Private Lessons + Lifetime Support)
|
There is no sight quite like your dog running free, unrestrained by your leash as they feel that rush of pure joy running through an open field. Even better is the peace of mind you have in knowing that your dog will come back when called the first time, every time, regardless of what distractions they find.
You know that no matter what temptations they might discover, you are the most important thing in their world and they can’t wait to race back over to you! The North Star Program will give you and your dog the ultimate freedom that comes from your dog listening in every situation. Your dog will not only look to you for direction, wait before rushing out the door, and calmly lounge around with you after a long day, but will also happily stay by your side as you pass by people and dogs because they know that nothing can compete with being with you. (Which is also awesome at home since dogs spend 99% of the time with no leash on!) Not only will you will receive a comprehensive go-home lesson to transfer all of your dog’s obedience to you, but with our follow-up lessons and lifetime support you'll be able to ensure that you and your dog continue to grow together and continue to enjoy your newfound freedom. Our 4 Week Stay and Train Includes:

"We fell in love with and adopted a 5 month old rescue while vacationing in Turks and Caicos. Aside from offering a stable home with a big yard and plenty of love, we didn’t know the first things about dogs. Our exuberant, high-energy puppy, Saylor, was enrolled in TGL’s 3 week board-and-train to help transform her from an unschooled puppy to a well behaved pup on her way to world domination.Tim/TGL evaluated and custom designed the training to suit Saylor’s and our needs. During this 3 week training program, a strong routine was put in place for Saylor by providing structure, correcting bad habits and dealing with her anxiety issues. Saylor learned the basic obedience skills and we couldn’t believe the transformation when we got her back! We still have a long way to go in working to enforce everything Saylor has learned from her time at TGL but Tim has been available to provide guidance and answer any questions we have. We can’t thank TGL enough!"

The Tranquil Dog Program: (5+ Weeks + Unlimited Lessons + Lifetime Support)
|
A dog with a lot of energy can become isolating and embarrassing when our dogs should be one of the higher points in the day. This program will give you the complete freedom to enjoy your dog.
From all the benefits of knowing they will always come when called every time, to hanging out and relaxing while you have friends and family over, your dog will learn how to be part of the family. Taking your dog out into the world will provide a great break from the stress of a hard day’s work with a buddy who will follow you anywhere without a care in the world. The Tranquil Dog Program will help you channel your dog’s energy so that they are calm when you want them to be, and ready for play when the time is right. We will give you a break from the constant battle for rest while your dog learns how to slow down and take a breath, rather than reflexive reacting from one moment to the next. Once they've finished training with us, we'll be right there with you every step of the way. From unlimited follow-up lessons and a lifetime of support, we'll help you stay on the right path should you ever need help finding your footing again. Our 5+ Week Stay and Train Includes:
