Our Dog Training Programs include a Pre-Training Assessment, Basic and Advanced Obedience Training and Behavior Modification. Each program is designed to provide dog owners extensive leadership, training and problem solving skills through a series of private one-on-one sessions. In most cases, sessions are conducted inside and outside the client's residence. These carefully designed programs are geared toward establishing the owner as the leader while the dog learns to trust and respect the leader and respond to a variety of commands. The training process will serve to create a mutually rewarding relationship between the dog and owner.
Basic and Advanced Obedience training covers heel, heel /sit, stay, down, come, distance and distraction training and more. Distance work using hand cues and a 15' leash will be covered. Behavioral issues such as housebreaking, jumping, excessive barking, biting, destructive chewing, digging and other undesirable behaviors will be addressed throughout each of the training programs. The owner will learn simple problem solving and prevention exercises to remedy these issues.
Since dogs and people are all unique, and certain training techniques may work better than others in a given set of circumstances, training sessions will be tailored to suit each unique situation. The focus is always on achieving a rewarding relationship between an educated and experienced owner and a well trained and well behaved dog through patience, persistence, and practice.
The trainer's commitment to the trainer/client relationship is to be available for progress reports and to help when questions arise. Clients are encouraged to stay in touch, if they choose, via telephone and/or email.

Angel Paw Dog Training no longer provides pet sitting services. However, if you are looking for a local pet sitter for dog walking, house visits or boarding, we recommend the following:
Josephine: (914) 437-7130 cell, (914) 582-6842
Strolls with Julie: (914) 906-8414 cell, (914) 935-0515
Shelly Abramowitz: (914) 329-3307, (914) 937-7096
We recommend that you schedule an initial visit to meet the pet sitter, learn about their services, and explain both your needs and the needs of your pet. The initial visit gives you and the pet sitter the opportunity to interview each other. You should be comfortable with the way your pet sitter interacts with your pet. You should also be comfortable with either having the pet sitter in your home or leaving your pet at the sitter's home.
Please notify Doreen if you were not satisfied with any services provided by the pet sitters listed above.
