About Spot On Dog Training LLC

Force-free training around Mankato

Spot On Dog Training is run by trainer Lily, based in Lake Crystal and serving the Mankato area in person, with virtual clients anywhere. She uses modern, humane and evidence-based training, strives to be force-free and follows the Humane Hierarchy and the Least Inhibitive, Functionally Effective (LIFE) frameworks, starting with a dog's physical and mental wellness, then management, then positive reinforcement. As a pet guardian with disabilities, she focuses on accessibility, sending thorough notes, captioned video demos and multi-modal resources.

What she helps with

Issues include leash pulling, jumping, recall and attention, fearfulness, reactivity, resource guarding, aggression, trouble with grooming or handling, and problems between pets at home.
