I get it.
We work with dog owners like you all the time.
They come to us for aggression problems, or anxiety challenges, or even some of the smaller things like pulling on a leash or just not behaving overall.
All of them are good dog owners.
And all of them have one thing in common.
They don't have a SYSTEM for fixing their dog's behavior.
They've tried everything, it seems. Books, YouTube videos, asking neighbors and friends. But nothing works.
Well, training a dog isn't easy. So trying to piece it together with a bit of info from a book, and advice from a friend, won't likely help you reach your goals.
That's why we developed our Dream Dog Training Program.
This program is a cumulation of years of training thousands of dogs - all breeds, sizes and ages - with all different temperaments, training and behavior issues.
We have used this program with shy, nervous, fearful dogs, who thought the world was out to get them.
With outgoing, over exuberant, wild and crazy dogs, who had no boundaries and didn't believe in personal space.
With adolescent dogs who thought they were still small puppies, jumping all over you with no manners.
With aggressive, reactive dogs, who loved to growl, bark, and bite.
With dogs who thought that "come" meant run away from you, as fast as they can.
With dogs whose separation anxiety was so severe, they could never be crated or left alone without destroying the house.
We put ALL of those dogs through this unique program.
Dogs that other trainers couldn't help.
Dogs that were brought to us from all of Florida and the Southeast.
And time and time again, our program helped dogs overcome their problems. No matter what those problems were.
EVERY dog owner with ANY problem will be able to FINALLY find help with their dog.
We didn't just eliminate the naughty behavior. Of course we did that, but that was only a small part.
We also set the foundation for a lifetime of learning, companionship, and having the best dog ever.
Your Instructor
Victoria is the head trainer at Dream Dogz. She has been training in Florida since she moved here in 2005 with her family and her owner/trained service dog Boo.
Victoria started as a food-based trainer, but realized the limitations and kept searching for a better way to serve her clients. After studying and combining many styles of training, she has developed her very own, unique style that our clients find easy to understand.
Victoria quickly became the areas go-to trainer for everything from puppies to pet dogs to service dogs to the hardest behavior issues. While she enjoys working with pet dogs and behavior issues, her passion is service dog training, and seeing the change in lives because of a well-trained service dog.
Plus, she gets to take the service dogs and service dogs in training to Disney World. After all, what is better than training dogs in the happiest - and most magical - place on earth?
