The Educated Dog

About

This Manhattan-based canine training service provides comprehensive behavioral modification and obedience programs through certified professional instruction. The practice offers in-home training sessions covering puppy development, adult dog skill building, and resolution of problematic behaviors including leash reactivity, resource guarding, excessive barking, and fearfulness. Additionally, specialized consultation is available for families preparing to introduce dogs to babies and toddlers. A distinctive feature is the remote separation anxiety program, which serves clients nationwide through virtual sessions and structured four-week training modules. This program includes live video assessments, customized daily exercises, and ongoing support to help dogs overcome distress when left alone. The trainer holds multiple certifications including CPDT-KA, CBCC-KA, CSAT, and Family Paws Parent Educator credentials. All training methods emphasize positive reinforcement techniques and science-based approaches to canine behavior. Sessions are conducted either in clients' homes for general training or remotely for separation anxiety work, with pricing structured around individual sessions or package deals that include written summaries and between-session support.
