Captain's Professional Dog Training (CPDT) - Los Angeles, CA
I am an experienced dog trainer in the areas of basic puppy training, basic obedience to behavior modification. I can help you with all of your issues with your pup, while building a better relationship between you. I can help you move from basic obedience to tricks, fitness and dog's sports. I employ scientifically-backed, positive training methods to teach dogs new behaviors. My expertise lies in working with challenging dogs, aiming to transform them into the ideal companions—ones that don't bite, bark excessively, or pull on walks. Together, we can achieve the perfect behavior you seek in your furry friend. Please contact and book me through Petworks. Thank you.
