Dog Obedience Training in Ocean County, NJ
As Ocean Country’s number one dog trainer, we deeply understand where most people go wrong with their pup’s early years. It’s VITAL to arm your pooch with the correct training in the first 16 weeks of life – and that’s what our Puppy Management course is all about. You’ll develop a healthy, nurturing relationship with your dog – and enjoy dog walking and letting them off the leash – so click below to find out more and schedule your free consult.
Benefits of Puppy Management:
- With a recently adopted puppy, you’ll have one less thing to worry about because you’ll know that through obedience training, they’re on the path to a happy and healthy lifestyle.
- If you’re already starting to notice troubling signs of aggression and disobedience, puppy training can help correct that behavior before it gets out of hand.
Dog Training Day Care
The “Day Care Training” program is our version of doggy daycare. You drop your pup off to us in the morning, and they will be trained all day! At pick-up, you will meet with one of our trainers to go over what your pup has learned and assign homework to complete before your next day of training. Once your program is complete, you will have access to our group training classes (held twice a week) for additional support!
This is the perfect option for:
- Working pet parents
- Owners who don’t want to part ways with their dog at night
- Getting in a full day’s worth of training
(*Behavioral training may be covered under some pet insurance policies. Check with your provider!)

Our team of dedicated expert trainers in our Board and Train program will do all of the heavy lifting for you! Your pup will have our full attention as we work with them each day and night.

Dog Trainers & Staff
Professional trainers. Attentive friendly staff.
With over 20 years of dog training experience, I have had the pleasure of working and training with some of the top dog trainers and dog handlers both nationally and internationally.
Some of my recent accomplishments include providing Sport Dog and Protection Dog seminars, Obedience Classes, general dog in-services and training for specialized protection dog groups. I also am a Dog Sport Club Training Director and Instructor.
In addition to providing education and training services, I continue to attend countless training seminars and continuing education hours to include some of the most recent and up to date training techniques in the pet/dog industry. I also have my Dog First Aid/CPR certification, updated yearly.
My passion for training dogs has taken me to multiple Sport Dog competitions from AKC Obedience to Protection Sport Association (PSA). In the last few years with my dog ‘Rocky”, we have accomplished some of the highest levels of recognition in the Dog Sport world. Achieving multiple Regional and National Championships. This included 2015 PSA Level3 USA National Champion, 2016 PSA Level3 USA Highest scoring team of the year, 2017 PSA Level3 USA Regional Champion, 2017 PSA Level3 USA National Champion, 2018 PSA Level3 USA Regional Champion, 2019 PSA Level3 Canadian National Champion.
Throughout all my years of training I have learned the greatest enjoyment for me is being able to help and give others the ability to communicate with their dogs, creating a long lasting relationship. I truly feel blessed to be able to give back to the community by showcasing Sit Means Sit training as a smarter, faster and more reliable form of training to all.
While training dogs is my passion, I also have 6 dogs in my own”pack” at home including 4 Malinois, 1 German Shepherd, and the boss of the house, our rescue dog “Star”.
