Effective communication between a dog and its human is essential towards creating a relationship with mutual respect and understanding.  Light-hearted, fun and informative sessions allow for human and canine alike to receive and process more than just basic commands (heel, sit, stay, come). The Mannered Mutt’s all encompassing philosophy will make rescue dog training and rescue puppy training second nature to you.

"The Mannered Mutts training is very personalized. Regardless of your dogs behavior, Alec is happy to work with your dog. The training is gentle and respectful to the dogs."
