about us

Logi-Dog Training was created with efficiency in mind, the quickest, most humane and fun way of communicating to your four legged family members. Being able to ask something of your dog  and seeing their fast, consistent, and most important, happy response when you need a certain behavior in any given situation. Using scientifically sound and humane methods, to help create optimal outcomes for all family members, four and two legs alike.

Having 10 years of coaching kids from as young as 2 to as old as 15 and 8 years of handling owned and shelter animals in multiple aspects, everything from kennel tech to dog sitter and dog walker to now a certified trainer has given me the insight and experience to coach and teach all family members how to better communicate. 

 
 
Because behavior is under the control of its consequences, obedience training is about providing consequences to the dog. Life is a never-ending series of:”If you do this, this happens, if you do that, another thing happens.” There are two kinds of things that happen in life, good things and bad things, so there are four kinds of consequences: good stuff can 1) start and 2) end; bad stuff can 1) start and 2) end. Your dog is constantly trying to start the good stuff, end the bad stuff, avoid ending the good stuff, and avoid starting the bad stuff. He’s playing his entire environment, including you, this way. If you can recognize this and exploit it, *voila!* Control of the dog.

Our Services

 
 

Private Consultation

50-60 mile service area from Harwinton CT

We offer private one on one consultations in home, ranging from obedience training such as sit, down, leave it, recall, and stay to behavior issues such as, jumping, mouthiness, hyperactivity, pulling on leash, resource guarding, house soiling, separation anxiety, fear, and generalized anxiety. 

Board and Train

100-120 mile service area from Harwinton CT

We offer pick and drop off service for all board and train packages. Stays happen in home and not a kennel environment, to help reduce stress and maintain needed schedules to create strong associations with taught obedience and behavior modification protocols.

Remote Consultation

Service hours vary

Remote consultations can be a very effective way of learning to train your furry family at a reduced time and cost, by Zoom or Google Meet.

 
 
Training is a loop, a two-way communication in which an event at one end of the loop changes events at the other, exactly like a cybernetic feedback system; yet many psychologists treat their work as something they do to a subject, not with the subject.
