Little Critters Training and Care - Private Dog Trainer - Framingham, MA
Welcome to Little Critters Training and Care! Whether you just took home a puppy or kitten or have had your dog or cat for many years, we can help you with training and behavior modification. We use love and positive reinforcement to carefully/ gently mold and change your pet’s behavior. When working with your family on the problems that need to be resolved, we meet with everybody regularly to discuss issues and concerns, in addition to spending a lot of time with your best friend. These regular meetings are crucial to success with the training. We believe that working with your pet should be a rich and rewarding experience, not something to be endured until the process is over. Teaching is our passion, and we treat each pet as our own. We truly understand how deep the bond is with our furry friends, and how sacred the trust. We commit as much time and energy that is required to reach the goals for you and your pet. Our dynamic combination of engaging their instincts: play, rest, socialization, proper nutrition, healthcare, and protection, will encourage your pet to become a physically, emotionally, and spiritually balanced companion.
