Training is teaching things that wouldn't happen in nature. Dog training classes addresses the part of the brain that processes learned behavior. This is most generally thought of as dog obedience training.

Behavior Modification is about roles and relationships. It's communicating in the dog's natural language and addresses a different part of the brain than training, the instinctive part of the animal's brain. This is most generally used to address "problem behaviors" and performed in the home.

Debbie has extensive experience with guardian breeds such as Neapolitan Mastiffs and managing the guardian behaviors. As an owner of Neos, Debbie understands the unique challenges owners face in communicating roles and modifying unwanted behaviors in guardian breeds like the Neo. For information about guardian breed specific training, please email dogpsychtraining@gmail.com
