About A Step Above The Rest Dog Training

What they offer

A Step Above The Rest Dog Training is run by Theresa, who has helped dog owners and their companions for 25 years. Training is booked as packages: a basic obedience package, a basic puppy program and a consultation.

Training

The work covers frustrating everyday behaviors and puppy manners, and also behavioral and communication issues for dogs who in some cases show aggression towards people or other animals. Private obedience training is part of the offer. The site welcomes owners who have tried classes before without success as well as first-time owners.

Getting started

Send a message or call to book a consultation and talk through which package fits your dog.
