Hi, I’m Debbie Tangen, a certified dog trainer. I train dogs to display polite behavior.
As a private, in-home trainer, I come to you because I believe dogs learn new skills better in their own familiar surroundings.
Does your dog need to learn some manners? Well, you’re in the right place.
Now, I won’t teach Fido to skillfully navigate an agility course, teach him to roll over, walk backwards on 2 legs or leap into the air performing a 360-degree turn…
…however, I will train him to display polite behavior such as sit, stay, down and come on cue, as well as keep “all four on the floor” (no jumping), maintain a loose leash while walking (no pulling), and decrease excessive barking.
If this sounds like what you need for your canine companion, I can help you.
From puppies to senior dogs, Chihuahuas to Great Danes, I want to help you have a well-mannered furry family member.
Your dog will learn to keep slack in its leash (no pulling).

Free Consultation
I offer a free consultation to dog guardians living within the I-435 loop of the Kansas City, Missouri metropolitan area. Call, text or email me and we’ll schedule a consultation at a mutually agreeable day and time.
For the consultation: I come to your house or apartment, meet you and your dog, get detailed information about your training goals and observe your dog’s behavior. Once I’ve gained all the information I need, I’ll give you my recommendations for moving forward with training.
Before you commit to training with me, look at other trainers and their philosophies. Check out my Google reviews. Read what past clients have said. Check out my Facebook and Instagram posts.
After meeting with me and vetting my background, you’ll discover that earning your dog’s trust is my first step toward achieving successful training. Ensuring your satisfaction with my training is of utmost importance.
*Outside the I-435 loop, the consult fee is $75 to cover gas and drive time.
Have questions about your dog’s training? Reach out to Pawsitively Polite Dog Training. Call, email, or fill out our form—we’re here to help you build a happier, well-behaved companion at home.
Eye contact between you and your dog is essential!
