This is the program we recommend most often. It includes all the do's and don'ts that dogs need to know to avoid danger to dog and pet owner and property and neighbors. The dog listens on the first command without shouting or repeating no matter what the setting. There is no upset between dog and owner which establishes a mutual level of trust. This program offers a level of companionship that is truly endearing. Methods are humane.

DOGS TRAINED SUCCESSFULLY FROM A DISTANCE!

Sometimes dog owners need help with just a couple of behaviors that the dog has not changed despite all efforts. Our 45 - 60 MINUTE TELEPHONE CONSULTATION has helped many people who live too far to come for a visit. Owners get the chance to understand why their specific training attempts have failed and the concise way of correcting nuisance behaviors.

Stein-Way Dog Training® has been complimented on our practical Real Life Approach that incorporates normal family living routines and commendable dog behavior all from the comfort of your home telephone.

Clients are always surprised that their dog improves so quickly without hours of practice. It works because we provide precise information about the dog owner's particular home training situation that are not taught in the books or videos. I explain the simple way to fit their dog's learning into a busy home life.

We also clarify previous training mistakes which confuse the dog. They give up on the owner. A mistake like that can completely frustrate the dog and human. People understand the recommendations over the telephone, apply them at home and experience improved dog manners in a week!

After the consultation program, clients report afterward, "I knew my dog was smart, I just didn't know how I was confusing him."

"She chews my shoes!"

"He runs away!"

Dogs Trained Successfully From A Distance!

Dear Linda, Just a short note to tell you how pleased we were with your training instructions. Getting two puppies back to back was a little crazy on our part but we didn't plan it that way. I felt we had to have the first one housebroken before we could get another puppy so when I saw your ad I thought I'd give you a call. Your telephone instructions were "right on". Our Anja was housebroken in six days. I couldn't believe it. Thanks again, Greta Mack Spring Hill, NY "After becoming frustrated trying to reach a conclusion as to why my recently adopted dog (Murphy) would not eliminate in the yard, I telephone Linda (skeptically) to find out her suggestions. I explained our dog would "hold it" for 20 hours at a time, be left outdoors, sniff all over, come back indoors, then eliminate in the house. This was occurring on a daily basis and he would only "do his doggies business" when taken for a walk outside of his territory. I was beside myself and ready to send him back to the shelter. Thankfully, with a 30-minute telephone consultation with Linda, my hair is still on my head and Murphy is still a big part of our family. I can't express how elated we were when Murphy ultimately eliminated outdoors, in his yard. It was an exciting moment for all of us and the neighbors must have thought we had won the lottery. The best part of the Stein-Way training is that it continues to work. Now, eight months later, each time Murphy is let out and told to "go to his spot", within two minutes (no more) he has eliminated, raced back to the door for some praise and .. There Is No Clean Up!." Cheryl Durling Owner of Murphy

This program sets it's focus on a home where parents want their baby to be able to form a close relationship with the family pet without having the dog overwhelm children when they are eating a cookie on the floor, walking at an unsteady gate or getting a favorite teddy all chewed up. Kids and dogs can get on very well when the parents know everything a dog can do and how quick he'll understand.

Though, a small percentage of dogs can be so anxious about separation when their owner is away from home that they will severely injure themselves by gnawing at a paw or chewing to the point of bleeding or pounding relentlessly against a confinement. For these dogs it is fortunate that medication has recently been approved by the FDA and is available through your veterinarian. Stein-Way will work on behavior modification along with your veterinarian's recommendations. However, our experience over 25 years is that most destruction and messing while you are away is often merely an escalation of disobedient behaviors that you'll witness when you are home. Our guarantee includes your dog being trustworthy when you are not home.

Puppies and older dogs do not need to suffer "separation anxiety." The Stein-Way Dog Training® Method teaches them that you always come back through that door so they don't need to chew or mess while you are away. We guarantee our work.
