Hi! I’m Debbie Tangen.

If your dog needs to learn some manners, you’re in the right place!

Now, I won’t teach Fido to skillfully navigate an agility course, nor 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 command, as well as keep “all four on the floor” when greeting people (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!

By the way, the saying “You can’t teach old dogs new tricks” is not true. My currently 13-year-old Shiba Inu was 11 when I taught her new behaviors.

From puppies to senior dogs, Chihuahuas to Great Danes, I want to help you have a well-mannered furry family member.
