Private training for Woodbury dogs

Many Woodbury homes sit on larger, wooded lots, and plenty of owners want a dog who can walk politely through town as well as enjoy the outdoors. Steve builds calm walking, reliable recall and good house manners, starting in your home and your yard.

Main Street, with its antique shops and foot traffic, is a good test of calm leash walking around people. The trails at Flanders Nature Center are a great place to practice recall and focus once your dog is ready.

Steve took our barky little dog Rosie and turned her into a (quiet) star in one lesson! He explained to us what we were inadvertently teaching her and how to turn it around. Last evening I walked her down our street and meeting with a neighbor stood and chatted for almost an hour. Rose did not bark once as people on motorbikes, on foot and in cars passed by. As a matter of fact, she lay down on the grass after a while! Steve, you are our hero!

We are so thankful we found Steve Good Dog to train us and our rescue dog Itsy. He's helped us to understand how Itsy thinks, and what he needs to live his best life with us. Steve is extremely knowledgeable and clearly loves dogs. His recommendations bring great results. It seems dog training is more of a calling for him, than a job. We strongly recommend Steve with the highest degree of confidence.

Steve is training us (humans) how our dogs understand commands, body posture, voice tone, and how they need to process what we are asking them to do. Learning these skills is extremely helpful in gaining positive results. Steve makes the learning experience very clear and also rewarding. Highly recommended!

Woodbury dog training questions

Answers for Woodbury dog owners.

No. Woodbury is at the outer edge of Steve’s service area, but he regularly works there. Book early to lock in a time that works, since Steve groups his visits out this way.
Everyone starts with a Starting Point session at $250, about an hour and a half covering a full assessment and training. Follow-ups are $210 for an hour, and remote video sessions are $145.
Yes. Steve teaches loose-leash walking at home first, then helps you add distractions gradually, so that by the time you are walking past shops and people your dog already knows what to do.
Yes. After an in-home Starting Point session, many owners use $145 remote video sessions for follow-ups and add in-home visits whenever something new comes up.
