About AlphA and Omega Dog Training

Tampa Bay training from AlphA and Omega

AlphA and Omega Dog Training works with owners across Tampa Bay, including St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Seminole, Largo, Dunedin and Tampa, with a free phone consultation or an in-home consultation to start. Its motto is "Train the Human. The Dog Follows." Clients name Jay as their trainer.

Method

The company treats pulling, ignoring commands and reactivity as communication problems and coaches owners to lead with clear, instinctual direction and structure. It describes its approach as built on accountability and consistency rather than treat dependency or clickers. Training includes marker timing and correction timing, and the company says corrections are never punitive and are meant to guide learning.

Programs

Training Fundamentals builds leash communication, loose-leash walking, sit, down, place and heel. Behavioral Development, the most popular program, addresses reactivity, aggression, anxiety and disobedience. Managed Obedience aims at off-leash reliability in high-distraction settings. Protection training, tracking training and separation anxiety training are also offered. A hands-on $50 Initial Handling Session gives immediate guidance and next steps.

What owners say

One client wrote that Jay got the family "to a point where we could walk all three of our medium/large dogs" in public on a loose leash.
