NO FEAR.
NO FORCE.
NO EXCEPTIONS.
Reward-Based training has been scientifically studied and proven to be the most humane and effective method of training dogs today. It is grounded in love, and requires you to be calm, consistent, & patient.
Since dogs aren't born knowing what to do, it's our responsibility to guide them. When you teach your dog using Fear-Free methods and Positively Reward them when they Learn, they are likely to repeat those behaviors.
Our Two Week Stay N Train Programs as well as our One-On-One Session will provide Potty Training, Basic Obedience & Manners. During this time, your companion will develop their Confidence, Independence and Social Skills. And regardless of your furry companion's breed or age, we can stop Unwanted Behaviors like potty accidents, leash-pulling, and relentless BARKING! We can also help you treat anxiety behavior when your dog is separated from you or isolated.
We believe that the partnership between you and your dog should be one of love & respect. Like any loving relationship, there needs to be communication, rules and boundaries. Our goal is to help you form an unbreakable bond with your loyal companion that develops over time and never from fear.
Rewarding every step with love will lead to an obedient dog that loves you unconditionally.
THE
RIGHT
TRAINER
Teaching your dog to behave properly is one of the most important responsibilities you have as an owner and choosing the right trainer can make all the difference. Reward-based, Fear-Free Trainers are very hard to find and sadly, adverse tools like Prong Collars, Choke chains, and E-Collars are used every day as the primary and only form of training.
These methods should be the LAST resort of any training program and at The Bark Stop, we do not approve nor use any of these devices, at any time.

so many ways to learn
Puppy Training
From the moment you bring your new pup home, we will help you set them up for success. Trust and Respect combined with rules
and boundaries ultimately
lead to a lasting bond
Basic Obedience
Obedience is more than just learning your basic Sit & Stay Commands. We help you connect to your dog with your heart instead of a collar and leash.
potty training
Arguably the first and most important lesson your puppy needs to learn. Whether you want your dog to use pads, grass, or both, we can make sure accidents in the house are a thing of the past.
crate training
Despite what you many think, Crate training is not just for potty training. Their are numerous benefits to giving your dog a "safe place" in your home that is also one of the happiest places ever!
Reactivity Training
Reward desirable behaviors so that your dog is eager to repeat them.
Ignore unwanted behaviors and they diminish over time due to the lack of reinforcement.
Socialization
Some of us are better at making friends than others. Together we can show your pup how to explore new environments and become a true canine citizen
