Problem Behaviors

    Does your dog take YOU for a walk, tell YOU when it's
    time to get out of bed, play with him, or feed him ?  

    Enjoy life as the Pack Leader where YOU make the
    decisions for your dog!

    Dogs misbehave when leadership is unclear.  Your dog
    is programmed to live by pack rules.  The leader is
    responsible for maintaining the pack rules and keeping
    the pack safe.  If no one in the family takes control, the
    dog will. However,  dogs don't want the stress involved
    with being the pack leader in a human family.  They are
    happiest when clear rules are given.  Clear, effective
    leadership promotes trust and respect. This allows your
    dog to be at peace because he understands his role in
    the pack. The pack is more stable when leadership
    is clearly defined.

    You can achieve natural obedience and establish
    yourself as the pack leader in your home using the
    Carolina Dog Training approach.  Our approach is
    based on trust and respect.  We will work with you to
    establish fair, clear, and consistent rules in your home
    that your dog can understand.  We tailor our training to
    the personality of each dog.

    Bolting out of doors
    Chasing kids, cars, and dogs

"We can finally eat dinner
in peace. We have
eliminated a serious frisbee
obsession and we are
finally the pack leaders."
Chrissy and Ryan Sladek
"Caesar was very fearful of many
things, mostly people. Working
with Elaine has brought him out
of his shell...He is not afraid of
people on his walks any longer,
and he does not blink an eye
when a car passes. I would never
have thought this was possible."

-Paulette Berg

dog become obedient and
stop his aggressive behavior
towards strangers."

" We are now more
confident about walking
Ella around other
dogs...We never thought
she would do so well or
that we would learn so
much! Thanks for all you
did."
Eva & Jay Melamed
"The time & money spent for
training Otis was well worth every
cent! Our expectations of Elaine's
services were far exceeded. Her
talent for training & love for dogs
were apparent from the moment
we met. She is professional,
patient, & willing to work hard to
train not only our dog but our
entire family. Thank you Elaine and
Carolina Dog Training for changing
Otis' life & for the gift of a
well-mannered dog & companion."

"Elaine, Molly is doing great.
Today I took Molly on a
walk without a leash....it was
great!  She's doing so much
better with the kids....you
were right, it took a few
times to correct the
nipping...also the digging.  
It's worth every minute and
constant watch in the
beginning.  She's even
retrieving balls and
"dropping" them for me and
the kids.  I know it will be a
lifelong training, but she's
come so far in such a short
time!  Thank you so much!!!
