There’s nothing like an unruly pit bull that you can’t walk anywhere. Take ‘Betty’ for example. Betty is in dire need of some exercise, but her owner is scared of her unruly behaviour around dogs. After a few sessions with Sit Means Sit, Betty and her owner are ready to tackle a visit to the [...]
Below is a brief, unedited video clip of my 12 week old puppy ‘Phender’ during an imprinting session where I am building his understanding of walking with his head up. There are no real expectations placed on the puppy during this training session, simply just a game of play with a water bottle. Any item [...]

This is a photo of a recent acquisition of mine, an 11 month old border collie that I adopted from the Henderson Animal Shelter. Her name is Phaneuf and she’s a total lunatic. She would make a great agility dog.
Come out to our Las Vegas Dog Training School to see her in action or watch [...]
As a Las Vegas dog trainer I get calls to work with and train clients that have small dogs as pets and companions. Every dog is an individual and some small dogs can be fearful, while other small dogs can be aggressive, and others are over-the-top friendly.
