Arnold is a 9 month old yellow lab mixed with husky. His energy is endless! 4 months ago I was getting complaints about my pup barking. 2 months ago I received behavior notes from Arnold’s day care. Since we started training with Bo we haven’t received any noise complaints and Arnold is able to go to two days at day care now. I’ve learned a lot from Bo. Arnold and I have a better bond now than we have before. I still have a lot of work to do but I have all of the tools I need thanks to Bo!

I would highly recommend Bo. He was great with our 2 somewhat unruly rescues. He was even able to work with the one that was fearful of men. Bo taught us several techniques that have helped us tremendously with their behavior. It was definitely money well spent!

We were ready to give up our 14 month Flatcoated Retriever. Through his kind training methods we now have a another family member.
Thanks Bo

Bo helped my two scared Chihuahuas calm down and relax. They are happier and their anxiety is greatly reduced! I learned to read their body signals better, too. I'm so grateful to Bo for giving my dogs a better life.

Bo is amazing! He is full of information. He was able to work with our puppy who is leash reactive, and get her to happily meet another dog is less than 40 minutes! So awesome! I am so thankful I found him to help us, especially since other trainers told us they couldn't.

July 5, 2017 - We recently adopted two 2 year old beagles that have some behavior issues. We contacted Bo for help and he gave us a lot of techniques and tips for kind and force free training to address these issues. We are already seeing progress in them and would recommend Bo if you need help with your dog.

July 26, 2019 - Bo was amazing with my shepherd and her reactive personality. He gave effective tips and tricks to help her stay calm in uncomfortable situations, along with written instructions we could refer back to! I would definitely recommend him to others who are having problems training their dog!

It Began With Puppy Loki
When I adopted Puppy Loki back in 2013, I had no idea what I was getting myself into.
He was extremely high energy and extremely smart. Too often I felt like I just wasn’t able to keep up with him.
I remember one day on the edge of tears not sure what to do, wondering for the first time whether I was going to be able to do this.
It was then that I looked him in his furry little face, and I said to him…
“I promise, I’ll figure this out no matter what it takes.”
I obsessively immersed myself in the study of dog training
I refused to give up. I learned everything I could about dog training.
I tried different approaches. In retrospect, some things I wish I hadn’t done. Sure, they were “accepted” methods of dog training, but they weren’t healthy for any dog. To this day, I can see their adverse effects on Adult Loki. I admit I have regrets.
But, back then I didn’t know what to do. I had no way of knowing whether certain dog-training approaches were going to benefit my puppyy or damage him.
Thankfully, somewhere along the line I discovered science-based, force-free training. The methods are all safe and designed to do no harm. I dove right in and never turned back.
Enter the dog trainer
As a result of trying to survive Puppy Loki, I ended up becoming a professional dog trainer.
I’m thankful for Loki entering my life and taking me into a different, unforseen direction.
Once I started my own force-free dog-training business, I knew I wanted to help others avoid the struggles I had to overcome.
I asked myself, “What do I wish someone had taught me when I adopted Puppy Loki so that we could have had the smoothest transition possible and I could set him up for success as he matured?”
That question led to the creation of the Canine Coaching Course.
This course has evolved over the years, and now it’s my powerful flagship program that clients love.
The Canine Coaching Course
This isn't "just another dog-training class"
Let me teach you how to train like a pro
Imagine your dog developing an issue. While others would call a dog trainer, you say to yourself, “I’ve got this”. And you do!
That’s what I want for you.
Most other dog-training courses teach your dog a set number of “skills” or “tricks”.
If you want more, you have to pay for more.
That’s NOT what I do.
Instead, through the Canine Coaching Course. I teach you the basic principles concepts, and techniques of modern, science-based dog training, so you can learn to train your own dog as you need to and not have to turn to a dog-trainer for basic training ever again.
In other words: I teach you how to use the very system I use to train dogs myself.

Become independent of expensive, professional dog training that you can now do yourself
No more frustration and yelling because your dog joyfully wants to respond to you
Strengthen your relationship with your dog beyond what you previously thought possible

We just had our first training session with Bo. HE IS AMAZING! Teddy's first test came shortly after Bo left, when a visitor came to the door. One quick bark, no growling! WOW!

Bo is a great trainer. He has been working with Ryder and I have seen a improvement beyond belief. Ryder is 6 months old now and is doing great on his training with Bo. Bo is very good at explaining things to us and makes it very easy to understand. If you need help with your Puppy I highly recommend Bo to help you. He not only trains your Pup he also trains you to be a better dog owner. It is nice to have a well behaved dog. Thank you Bo for helping us with Ryder!

May 24, 2017 - I would highly recommend Bo! I started to have no hope with my two chihuahuas until I met Bo. Not only did he help train my dogs but he helped me understand them better. It only took two training sessions for my dogs and now everyone that knew my dogs behavior issues and went around them before now comes around them with no problems and notices saying “Wow, training really did pay off.”

Revolutionizing Family Dog Training
What makes this system so powerful?
Private lessons with me take you and your dog into account
- 1-on-1 training is the highest quality of training available because you don't share time with others.
- Personalizing the training agenda to the needs of your household means you don't have to figure out how it all applies on your own.
- Scheduling flexibility accomodates your busy schedule as best as possible
Online platform that makes dog training accessible and affordable
- Better than in-person training because your dog learns best without the distraction of new people.
- You have access to high-quality dog-training over video calls with me no matter where you live at rates that don't reflect big-city expense.
- Rock-bottom dog-training pricing as I pass on my savings of not having a facility or travel expense to you.
Complete framework to cover all the dog-training bases
- I literally teach you the very system I use to train dogs so you have a flexible framework to address situations as they arise in real life.
- A condensed and simplified dog-training system that isn't watered down so it retains its full power.
- My goal is to empower you through the course so you don't need to sign up for more classes.

We had our fist class with Bo a few days after we brought Gytha home at 10 weeks. At 5 months, we're doing Bo's group class, and we're doing really well! Bo is an amazing trainer — sure, he's great with the dogs (he's their best friend, I'm not even chopped liver), but he's also great with people. If you're on the fence, just do it. As long as you put in the work, you and your dog will flourish with Bo's guidance.

November 17, 2018 - I have nothing but good things to say about Bo and his training. I was feeling very helpless with my dog Duke and his behavioral issues and am very glad I found his website online. Bo came to our house to work with our dog Duke. He asked tons of questions to understand what we wanted out of the training, and to understand Duke and what his needs were as well. By the fourth session I had seen a ton of improvement with Duke, and also feel more confident having the tools to help set him up for further success. I highly recommend contacting Bo for any of your dog training needs!
