About Off The Hook Dogs

Behavior work from Providence

Off The Hook Dogs is a canine behavior and training business in Providence led by Greg Riley, serving Rhode Island and southern Massachusetts. Greg bills himself as a Master Aggression Specialist and K9 Emotion & Behavior Rehabilitation Specialist, specializing in emotional rehabilitation, aggression and reactivity mitigation, and leash manners. Training happens in and around your home and neighborhood, where the issues arise, along with adventure hikes in the woods, at the beach and in parks.

Method

The business describes "high level balanced training, behavior modification, and therapeutic protocols," which may include Greg's own "softouch" e-collar techniques and game-centered methods, combined with basic obedience and relaxation work. It says helping dogs should be "fun, friendly, fair, and effective."

Programs

Programs cover consultations, coaching and emotional rehabilitation, behavior modification and mediation, and leash manners, all for puppies to adults. Off-Leash Freedom is available for dogs 5 months and older as part of behavior modification programs. Cash and Venmo payments receive discounts.
