Are you struggling with your dog?

 
​Is your dog a lunatic on a leash when he sees another dog or person? 

Does your dog just "do his own thing" and ignore you when you ask him to do something?
   
 Do you have a "bad" puppy who's making your life crazy after having the perfect older dog?  

Do you have a special rescue dog who has "issues" from a previous traumatic life or abuse? 
 
Does your dog only "do it" when he knows you have a treat in your hand?

​Four Dogs on a Down with Distractions

-this could be your dog too with patience, practice  and trust!  

​On a down at Lowe's in Hanover, Pennsylvania USA. 
Four dogs...​lots of cars, people and distractions!
​
Looking for help can be overwhelming, we understand that and want to keep it simple
- here are two main options to consider
​
​ PRIVATE TRAINING
Do you want to be involved with every step of the process? We teach you along the way with your dog in your home. On your schedule when you have time!
 
or 

 BOARD and TRAIN
Are you super busy.... and just want it "done for you", we train your dog THEN we train you! And, you get LIFETIME Training Support too

Both training choices can lead to the same results!  It's really just how you choose to get there, what fits best for your lifestyle AND your dog. 
​
We understand this is a unique situation to be in.... and maybe you've probably never had to look for professional help before beyond a simple group class.  We know it can be overwhelming- we get that. We'll make it as simple (and stress free!) as possible to get the information you need to help make the best training choices possible. 
BONUS
Mixed Topic Group Classes
are included in ALL the training programs at NO extra charge. 
Train and learn in places you want to be with your dog!

My dog Josie and I just finished the Challenging Dog Program with Carolyn Sanagursky from Cold Creek Dog Training, and I'm so grateful. Carolyn was so kind and would answer every question I asked in person or emailed her. About a month after adopting her, Josie started to scream and lunge when she saw other dogs, even from a long distance, dragging me towards them on our walks. On the occasion she was close enough, she even got into a couple of fights. I can now walk Josie alongside other dogs, and she will even play/run around with certain family members' dogs. We still have some work to do, but I would never have considered taking her into a pet store before. So far, I have confidently taken her into Petco with several other dogs present, and during our last lesson, we went into Bass Pro Shop. Though she was nervous about the new environment, she stayed neutral when standing/walking side by side with another dog Carolyn had brought. I'm so excited to not be afraid to walk past other dogs and for Josie to finally have some dog friends!

We cannot say enough good things about Julie and our training experience with Cold Creek Dog Training. We had already invested a significant amount into dog training with another local group which was not a great fit for our dog and left him reactive to other dogs. We were so hesitant because of our previous experience but Julie was so accommodating towards our concerns. She took extra time before we even committed to answer all of our questions about the program and make sure we were comfortable.

Immediately after our first session we noticed a difference in our pup's behavior. We've implemented their practices on a daily basis and watched him transform into a more calm and attentive dog. Julie is extremely professional, patient, and calm with our dog. She clearly explains and demonstrates all of the practices and commands so that you and your dog can understand. At one of our lessons, she even brought her own well-trained dog to meet ours so he could work on his reactivity. She is the one person who our dog will immediately listen to no matter what. "What Would Julie Do" is a common phrase in our household. We are so grateful for her and everything she's done for our doggo. We cannot thank Cold Creek enough!

Our German Shepherd was continuing to bite after teething and had a lot of issues with following directions, slight aggression and misbehavior. Shane was able to work miracles with him after the 2 week board program. Our dog came back a brand new dog but still had his full personality. The difference from the drop off was night and day. He is incredibly respectful and follows every command given. We can take him in public without any worries and his recall is top notch. Shane was amazing through the entire process giving us ample updates and statuses on the progression. We could tell our dog had a great time even while training and away from home. Shane treated him like family and it showed. Would highly recommend.

Thinking about it ? 

Here's what we do..........and how we do it!

We have been professionally training dogs and most importantly people for 30+ years.
As trainers we never stop learning to bring you the best training you can get combining obedience and most importantly behavioral training!

 This young German Shorthaired Pointer has a lot of energy! She was such a puller on the leash as you can imagine when you see her bouncy personality.  Here's a little clip that shows how we teach and connect and how she responds after just five days of training. She's very happy and willing and most of all - paying attention! The communication is clear, it's black and white, she understands - It's that easy.
