I'm Amy Dunlap,
a certified dog trainer with over 10 years of experience helping families build better relationships with their dogs. My approach uses positive, reward-based techniques that are customized to every dog. I'll help teach you what your dog is communicating, show you why they're doing what they do, then show you how to teach a new, desired behavior in the place of the problem behavior. I'll also help you find appropriate tools and home management techniques to stop problem behaviors from returning.

What our clients think...
"Amy at Ruff Start Dog Training is knowledgeable, kind, and absolutely wonderful. She empowers you and teaches you how to help your furry baby by showing you how to read their physical cues as well as reward based training.
I cannot say enough about how lucky we are to have found her. Our German Shepherd/Corgi baby is happier and less destructive since she has been helping us with training him!"
FAQs
- How many sessions will my dog need?
That is specific to your dog and your budget. Simple things like obedience tend to be shorter, like 4-6 weeks, where reactivity and severe issues may take months to complete.
- What should I bring?
Bring your dog, at least 2 kinds of high value treats cut into pea-sized pieces (150 treats), your dog on a flat collar, a standard, 6 foot leash (no retractable leashes), and patience.
- Do you work with reactive dogs?
Yes! I worked and mentored for 2 years under a trainer whose facility specialized in fear and anxiety cases. I have a lot of experience working with reactive dogs.
- What's your cancelation policy?
You can cancel classes at any time, but there are no refunds on classes sold. We require at least 24 hours' notice for cancelations, so we have an opportunity to fill those time slots.
