Our Services
Citizen Canines offer a small number of services custom designed to help you and your dog have a more enriching experience as you learn valuable skills, growing a successful pet dog relationship. Positive Reinforcement Training adds value to your relationship with your dog because you are paying your dog for the behaviors that you like and need in your family, so your dog understands what you like and how you are asking for particular behaviors, like wait here while i open the door to get our pizza, or lets hop in the car for a fun ride to the coffee shop for a latte and a pup cup. Join us and see how to simplify your communication with your dog and have some fun while you both learn.

"Before I met Paddy and Amy, my Aussie/Border Collie mix was reactive and unpredictable. They taught me how to work with her in a positive manner and it's made a huge difference. Now I have the tools and education to guide Boo in the right direction to keep her and others safe and happy. I've learned so much!"
