About Dog Guru – Dog & Puppy Training and Boarding

What they offer

Dog Guru is a dog training business serving Phoenix, Scottsdale and Paradise Valley, with an online interactive training program for owners elsewhere. Its site covers obedience, aggressive dog training, board and train and service dog training and its site also publishes free training-tip videos. It says it guarantees reliable results for the life of your dog.

Approach

The site describes a system built on communication and relationship, and says it is not interested in bribing dogs with treats or dominating them into submission. On aggression cases, it writes that a case is a sequence rather than a single technique, and that its proof is the same dogs later: off leash in public and calm around strangers.

The about page says Jimi Livshitz has been involved in dog training for over 35 years, beginning in Israel, and has lived in Arizona for the past 25 years. Schedule an evaluation to start.
