Hello everyone! I’m Eric (CPDT-KA) and my mission is to provide the best dog education services to my clients in order to reach their goals with their beloved dogs. Whether you need help teaching a brand new puppy with potty training or curbing their chewing habits, basic obedience, or behavior issues, I use science proven methods and personalized plans to teach you how to communicate what you want to your dog. I use non-aversive methods that are built on a foundation of positive reinforcement which boosts the confidence of your dog and builds a relationship of trust between your dog and you.

 

My story of dog training started when I lost a family member a few years ago. After a couple months of grieving, my girlfriend and I adopted a crazy rescue puppy without me knowing anything about dogs or how to teach them. I have a background in math and computer science and watched a bunch of videos online on what to do but we decided we needed some help and got lucky with an amazing trainer who I am still good friends with to this day. After a lot of studying, seminars, and learning, I have an amazing relationship with a rescue dog that rescued me and I have helped clients around Southern California build better relationships with their dogs. It is a passion of mine to help our human to dog relationships as I see people resort to methods that are not only less effective than positive reinforcement but also causes unnecessary pain and strain on the dog and their relationship. It is my goal for all of our dogs to be able to live their best lives while living up to the different rules in each household.
