Tell me what you hope to learn from me!
with Melissa Dallier of ACanineAffinity, Training Advocate

Hi Dogly community!


As we are just getting started, it will be helpful for me to know what you, the community, hope to learn from me! After all I'm your training advocate and here for you and your dogs.


While I train all dogs big and small, I do have some specialties:


Puppies! I love all things puppy. Whether its questions on socialization, crate training, potty training, play biting or more. I can offer useful tips or even step by step training if you want to connect with me one on one!


Reactivity? Dogs who bark/lunge on leash when they see dogs/people/skateboards and more. This frustrating behavior can be exhausting. If this sounds like your dog I would love to help you learn some management strategies and even some training tools to help your dog.

**Some dogs who display reactive behavior may be better suited to help from a positive, force free professional in person.


Fearful Behavior? Dogs who display fearful behavior have a special place in my heart. While there are no "quick fixes" - if you are interested in some exercises for helping fearful dogs gain confidence over time. Let me know!

Aside from the above I love working with dogs and their humans on everything from loose leash walking and coming when called to teaching new tricks to keep the mind busy on hot days!
