Rogers Dog Professionals
Compassionate, Effective Dog Training
Positive Reinforcement
Discovering what motivates our dogs so we can create training that keeps them engaged and thinking.
Relationship Building
Building upon the already social nature of dogs to create a functional dynamic in your family.
Enrichment & Management
Ensuring we are meeting the needs of our dogs and setting up the environment to facilitate their success.
What We Offer
Whether your dog needs to learn new skills or work through challenging behaviors, we have experience using compassionate techniques to do both.
Behavior Modification
Our process of behavior modification aims to understand the function of the behavior, the circumstances that elicit the behavior, and the underlying emotional state they are acting from. Whether it is displays of aggression, fear, anxiety, stress, or reactivity - we can take steps to help our pets change their perception of the world around them.
Skills Training
Learning skills allows our dogs to live peacefully and function in our world and in our lives. These skills include things like sit, down, place, and come. We can also teach them when to leave something alone, drop or pickup something, leave a space, jump up into our car, and fun enriching skills like spin, speak, paw, and roll over. All of these skills require us to teach mechanical movement and positive reinforcement can be a great approach to accomplish this.
What Our Clients Say
My wife and I have been working with Joe training our rescue Henny for about 6 months now. Happy to say she has been excelling in basic obedience as well as other areas we felt needed improvement. Thanks to Joe we have a happy obedient best friend. We cannot recommend him enough!
Tim & Henny
Outstanding Dog Trainer- Highly Recommended!
We cannot say enough great things about Joe and the help he provided with our rescue dog, Roscoe. As a young rescue, Roscoe wasn’t used to being in a home and needed a lot of basic training to ensure his safety and comfort in our family environment.
From the start, Joe’s approach was exceptional. He came to our home, met our family, and took the time to listen to all of our concerns. He was incredibly patient with Roscoe and with us, offering practical techniques that we could work on together at home.
Joe went above and beyond by sending detailed summary emails after each session, complete with links to resources and recommendations tailored to Roscoe’s needs. His professionalism shone through in his punctuality, ease of scheduling, and excellent communication throughout the process.
Thanks to Joe, Roscoe has made tremendous progress, and we feel so much more confident as pet owners. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and dedicated dog trainer, Joe is the one to call. Highly recommended!
Kelly & Roscoe
Joe is really easy-going and great to work with. You can tell he truly understands dogs. He is very flexible and provides useful advice on how to continue with the training process once he is gone. Our dog did really well with Joe and we can see the growth and progress he has made in only just a few appointments. I would recommend Joe if you are looking for professional help in training your dog.
