Canine Dimensions in-home dog training company specializes in behavior modification, problem solving and obedience training. We train puppies 8 weeks and older, and adult dogs of any age. We train your dog in your home. Canine Dimensions dog training is a natural, balanced training program. This is dog training nature's way, following a balanced, natural leadership paradigm that builds a strong bond of trust between dog and human.

Whether it's puppy training, dog obedience training or canine problem solving including issues like fear, aggression, housebreaking, shyness, hyperactivity, bad manners - we succeed where others fail.  Read our reviews on Google Maps, Kudzu and Merchant Circle. Our clients have given us a good report card because our methods work.  We are frequently cited as an information and reference source, e.g. the 2010 book by The Association of Pet Dog Trainers "Top Tips from Top Trainers" and websites including Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_training), and in numerous training articles including those on the website of the International Association of Canine Professionals, dogpro.org and on talk radio.

· It's no fun when your dog darts out through an open door and does not come when called.
· It's no fun when your dog embarrasses you by jumping all over a visitor to your home.
· Or when he begs for food at the table in front of a house full of guests.
· Or picks up your shoe and runs around the house playing "chase" when you're already late for work.
· It's no fun when you have to clean up your dog's urine and feces inside your home.
· And when he growls at you to protect his food or bone, it's more than just annoying, it's downright dangerous.

Owning a trained dog is an entirely different experience. Dog obedience training is the process of training the dog to perform 5 very important basic obedience commands: sit, down, come, stay and drop-it. These 5 commands give you the ability to control your dog's daily activities. Dog obedience training helps build a strong bond of trust between you and your dog because it trains your dog to look to you for approval in everything he does!  With obedience training, the relationship between you and your dog can reach its full potential! Dogs are pack animals and are genetically programmed to enjoy following a benevolent leader. Dog obedience training gives them confidence and security.
