About Hound habits

Force-free in-home training in Dallas

Hound Habits is the Dallas training business of Agatha Weisz, a CCPDT-certified trainer who has helped Dallas families raise puppies and teach manners for over 20 years. She uses modern, force-free methods, with no prong collars or punishment, and trains the dog and the family together so results stick. In-home sessions cover Oak Cliff, Preston Hollow, the Park Cities, Lakewood, Uptown, Oak Lawn, East Dallas, Kessler, Bishop Arts and nearby neighborhoods, and virtual coaching is available anywhere.
