About Canine Harmony LLC

Canine Harmony LLC is an in-home dog training business that publishes its location as East Northport, NY 11731 and describes itself as 'a fully insured and certified dog training company in East Northport'. Its own site states the business has been in the dog training industry since 2011. All work is done at the client's home: 'Dogs, no matter what age, learn best in their own environment. This is one of many reasons we come to you!'

Services published

The service list is short and concrete. Basic dog obedience training and advanced dog obedience training are the two core products. Two life-change programs are sold alongside them: preparing for a puppy, and preparing your dog for a baby's arrival – the second is rarely published as a named service by trainers in this metro and is worth knowing about if you are expecting. The rest of the menu is problem-behavior resolution and modification, with the problems named individually: housebreaking, separation anxiety, excessive barking, jumping, chewing, and, as the site puts it, 'other – including those behaviors your dog loves but you don't'.

How the sessions are run

The business is explicit that a private session is shaped around both ends of the leash: 'Private training sessions should be tailored to meet your needs as well as your dog's needs. The training sessions should be paced at your dog's comfort level as well as yours.' It also states that training the owner is part of the job – 'in addition to training your dog, we will also teach you and your family how to communicate and work with your dog' – which is the practical difference between an in-home program and a drop-off one.

Getting in touch

The site publishes a direct phone number, (631) 757-2956, and an email address, carol@canineharmonydogtraining.com, and carries a Meet the Trainer page and a testimonials page. Expect to ask for a quote on the first call. The business's own summary of its outlook is worth quoting because it sets the tone: 'There are no bad dogs, only dogs and owners that haven't been trained yet.'
