Love life with the dog you have.
Celebrate the dog training journey. You’ve come to the right place.
Imagine...
- a peaceful walk with your dog while your mind wanders. You are not worrying about squirrels or other dogs. Theres no pulling, no barking.
- A dog who is welcome at family gatherings- baseball practice, outdoor summer concerts. You are not worried about your dog barking louder than the band, or jumping in the game to catch a fly ball.
I can see it. I can get you there.

“Our family has been relying on Rubydog Training since we brought our pup home and at only six months she behaves beautifully at home, in crowds, stores, trails, and neighborhood walks. Highly recommend Rubydog training.”
— Kelly, Ursa and Major
Training Philosophy
Each canine and human learner is an individual, and each team unique. RubyDog uses force free, reward-based methods to help each team succeed.
Taking emotional states of both person and dog into consideration, we teach behaviors and expectations in a non-threatening way. By removing the fear and shame in learning we see teams who are not afraid to take chances, or make mistakes. Learning in this safe way fosters trust and strengthens the relationship between learner and teacher.
Our goal is to make your training journey fulfilling — we seek to promote confident, curious learning and celebrate accomplishments along the way.
"Rebecca helped our six year-old boxer tremendously with basic impulse controls.
Within weeks of adopting our dog (who had no prior socialization), Rebecca was able to transform him into a well-mannered and well-behaved dog. I’d absolutely recommend Rebecca for any dog training, big or small.”
— Curtis and Pilot
