Our mission
At See Spot Behave, we lead with kindness and respect, listening with open hearts to both dogs and their humans. Our mission is to educate our clients on how dogs see the world, fostering understanding and trust. Through patience and compassion, we build loving relationships between people and their dogs, recognizing that we are all on a journey of learning to be better partners. Together, we create a world where dogs and humans thrive in harmony
Training isn’t about controlling your dog...It’s about communicating with them.
When you understand your dog’s behavior, you can change it effectively, humanely, and with lasting results. We follow science-backed training principles that put your dog’s well-being, trust, and individual personality first — not outdated “pack leader” theories or force-based methods.
What Guides Us?
🔹 The Hierarchy of Dog Needs - and especially agency & consent. Your dog should feel safe, empowered, and respected. We teach your dog to make thoughtful decisions by giving them space to think and choose.
🔹 Fear-Free Training – No intimidation, no punishment—just clear communication and trust.
🔹 Understanding Why - We don't aspire to be "dog whisperers" and wow you with magic. Instead, we'll share our knowledge so you'll learn why your dog is behaving that way and what to do about it.
🔹 Real-Life Success – Because training isn’t just about “commands”—it’s about making everyday life easier.
