There is no one-size-fits-all training program, because your dog isn't like every other, your dog is well, yours. Often trainers will give advise without any considerations on how you can use the space you have, and that never made sense to me.

Dog Training
We had a fabulous experience with Eric at Bat Ears K9 ! Our anxious and active puppy was not responding to our “training” and Eric was so patient and calm . His knowledge of canines and their needs was exceptional and he taught us all so much . We highly recommend Eric without reservation ! More...

Dog Training
I've had a very pleasant experience so far. Very nice and easy to communicate, also very flexible on setting appointments. My dog also likes the trainer a lot. We've been able to accomplish some results in just 2 appointments. He also helps you perfect the training method and is always ready to answer questions. Also as my dog doesn't know English commands, and he took it upon himself to learn some of them which was very thoughtful. Overall 10 out of 10 experience. More...
What do you love most about your job?
I love the feeling of success when you have a break through, it really does feel like your dog is going from animal to companion. It's hard to explain but it is magical for sure!
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have helped several people in a short time span with training. Whether it is getting their leash walking on point, helping with reactivity, or even house breaking. Enough to the point where most have said I seem to have a real passion for training and I should pursue this even if it is a part time venture.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have noticed that some dog training emphasizes cramming a dog into a dog shaped mold without trying to take the time to embrace and channel the innate energy and nature of the dog into something productive. My goal is to embrace and work with the dog you have, rather than forcing it to be something it was never bred to be. There are a lot of amazing trainers out there who can get incredible results, and I am fortunate enough to have learned from some of them. However, amazing trainers are usually out of the reach of most people who are just getting their first dog.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I am able to provide training remotely. It is not ideal because really hands on training is the best, if you desire remote training I will request a short video isolating what a normal training session looks like and what some of the pain points you have, for me to take notes and diagnose.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I personally am vaccinated and boosted, on top of that I am comfortable wearing masks if desired.

Your goals and your dog aren't the same as everyone else. You deserve a plan that is tailored to getting you to where you want to be, nothing less.
