Behavioral Training

We’ll show you how to shake off embarrassment and discouragement that come along with your dog’s  mayhem. If your dog is exhibiting problem behaviors that require expertise beyond just “sit” and “stay”, look no further than behavioral training with us. Fearful, reactive, exuberant, and bossy dogs welcome. Skilled Mutts uses a combination of cognitive problem solving, training new behaviors and cherry-picking obedience cues that are most relevant to your situation.

Service Dog & Skills Training

Discover how your canine pal can learn a sense of purpose beyond just companionship. An injury, pre-existing disability, or joint deterioration can make simple actions vexing or painful. Picking up a dropped pen, removing socks, or hearing an alarm may be regular frustrations for some. No matter how self-reliant an individual may be, improved quality of life can always be an aspiration. We carefully take note of your individual situation and tailor the training plan to be most relevant to you. Service dog training is exclusively available for individuals with mobility challenges, or who are deaf/hard of hearing.  

“Andrea is able to read and communicate well with dogs. If something is not working, Andrea is able to assess the variables affecting the dog and come up with a plan to solve the issue. She’s also friendly, calm, polite and open with people.”
