Have Faith in your dog.

The Canine Guru

I’m Brandon Ross. I am a canine behaviorist with more than 30 years of experience. I work primarily with dogs that are aggressive, fearful, or have an obsessive behavior of some kind.

I come to you.

All services are on location — in your home or at the park. I teach you how to teach, and communicate with, your dog. That is how the relationship actually changes.

I use positive methods to teach new behaviors, and canine language to redirect bad ones. I do not use pinch, choke, or electric collars.

If you are not sure how many lessons you need, start with a consultation. The fee is waived if you sign up during that visit.

The dogs I am usually called for

I am a specialist in the dog training community. I work primarily with dogs that are aggressive, fearful, or have an obsessive behavior of some kind.

Aggressive

I use canine language to predict a dog’s next move — and to help prevent unwanted behaviors and fights. Then I teach you those skills, in a way that makes sense.

Fearful

We learn their language. That is how trust gets built, and how a fearful dog can finally understand the rules without being shouted at in ours.

Obsessive

I use positive methods to teach new behaviors, and canine language to redirect the ones that have a hold on the house. Patience brings peace. Frustration leads to chaos.

Patience Brings Peace.

That is the motto. Frustration leads to chaos. The energy you project is the result you get — he has been writing that down, in public, for years.
