About itchytail pet services

What they offer

Itchytail Pet Services was started in 2005 with one goal: keep dogs out of the shelter and in the home. Owner and trainer Shae Clark provides one-on-one private dog training lessons in and out of the home, working on skills for outdoor and household management. Behavior assessments and modification, group training, social play groups and boarding are also available.

Approach

Training is reward-based and balanced, built on communication, structure and love. Shae's training comes from hands-on work and courses through Leerburg and a shelter dog training program; she is a member of the IACP and holds pet CPR and first aid and animal behavior certifications.

Getting started

Book through the online scheduler or call to discuss your dog.
