Testimonials

“I am a first time dog owner and working with Jane has been a fabulous experience for both myself and my miniature poodle. Not only is little Benny learning many skills (which seems to make him happy) but I am understanding the way dogs communicate and learn. Jane at A Great Dog Now explains and teaches life skills that help you communicate and understand your pet. Did I mention that my dog can’t wait to see her every week? This Pryor method of positive reinforcement training makes total sense to me as a former educator and it also works for my dog. Click – Sit. Click – stay. Thanks Jane. You are doing a great job.”
– Jessica S.

About the Trainer

A Great Dog Now is a dog training business led by Jane, who specializes in positive reinforcement training using the Pryor method. Jane helps dog owners, especially first-time owners, understand how dogs communicate and learn through clear, educator-friendly techniques. Clients report that their dogs not only learn essential skills like sit and stay but also become happier and more responsive. The training focuses on building life skills for both dogs and their owners, fostering stronger bonds and better communication.

Jane’s approach is praised for its effectiveness and kindness, with dogs eagerly anticipating weekly sessions. The business emphasizes understanding and rewarding desired behaviors rather than using punishment, making it ideal for owners seeking a gentle, science-based method.
