Training


Does your canine friend(s) need help with…..

  • Housebreaking
  • Biting/growling
  • Jumping on people/furniture
  • Chewing
  • Pulling on leash
  • Stealing food off counters/table
  • Coming when called
  • Begging
  • Going through trash
  • Crate training
  • Sitting/laying
  • Staying/waiting
  • Learning to focus on what you want
  • New pet introduction into home
  • Sounds & environmental fear issues
  • Socialization
  • Separation anxiety & other anxiety issues
  • Manners (including for therapy dog training and preparing for CGC testing)
   

---Other issues can be evaluated. I also am available to assist in evaluating the home environment and/or current pets at the home to determine the proper introduction of an additional pet into the home. I can also do a behavioral analysis of a new pet to see if it is likely to be compatible to the current home situation. This type of evaluation is rated on an individual basis.

ANNOUNCEMENT:

An amazing opportunity and dream has come true. After several years of planning, I have teamed up with an established publisher and I am writing multiple books. My goal is to still work on publishing but due to the number of inquiries over the last year I will be announcing some new changes with the natural communication training program. In order to make the publishing dream come true I will be continuing a part-time hiatus from taking on new clients at this time. This will change over the next several months. So be looking for a new announcement upcoming regarding the training program.

During December 2024 the first book in the " Flashlight" Series is coming out.

Planned to be released during the 2025 year, there will be additional animal books including "Miracle's Journey" in the "Lady Miracle" Series, and other series.

There will also be dog training communication books, an online/in person Natural K9 Communication Course, etc. If you would like to be on the announcement list or a waiting list for the new books or for the Natural K9 Communication Course, please feel to email me with your contact information at This email address is being protected from spambots.

IN-PERSON & VIRTUAL TRAINING SESSIONS ARE NOW SUSPENDED FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. NO NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME. Toni will continue working with current clients.

** All behavioral training fees are by the session – not by the hour
** Sessions usually last 1 – 2 hours depending upon how many pets and the issues
** The first visit is usually for an evaluation and initial training process. There is an initial evaluation performed during the first training session and will be a continued process as you and your dog(s) develop during the program. The evaluation is an opportunity for me to meet you and your dog(s) and discuss with you the relationship you have and what you’d like to see different. I’ll discuss the issues I might observe when I test in several areas and we will decide together on what needs to be addressed in the training program. Then we will work as a team on a behavioral training program.

* Discounts are offered to homes with shelter/rescue pets with proof of such
* Positive reinforcement to develop a mutual respect is a preferred course of training
** Beginner, Intermediate & Advanced Training available. (6 session pre-payment required = $540)

Rescue/Shelter 6 session discount rate = $480

  • Each additional pet may be discounted depending upon my assessment of additional time needed for other pet(s) and their needs.
  • I work with dogs outside of the Blount County and will go where I am needed. If the training sessions require travel over 30 minutes to drive to, there is a nominal travel fee.

Please feel free to contact me and I will be glad to discuss the travel fee to your individual location. Fee is based on distance and travel time.
