Hakuna Matata Dog Training

About

We train dogs using clicker training and positive reinforcement. This helps the dog to realize what we do want from him instead of what we don’t want.

We create an environment that helps the dog and owner to learn faster and easier. Instead of forcing the dog to do something and punishing them when they don’t do it, we reinforce the behaviors we like which makes the behavior occur more often.

Once the dog understands the behavior we like, he will start to repeatedly offer. That’s called a loop. This is when you can add a cue/command to it.

We like to make things easy for the dog and their owner to understand so in training, the steps to success are simple.

I love being able to train the dog without having to use any type of physical force.

The dogs actually enjoy training time and we get to watch the lightbulb come on!

    If you want to say that your dog really is your best friend then Hakuna Matata Dog Training is the way to go. Hakuna Matatas owner/trainer Aryana uses the positive reinforcement technique in her every day training to allow four-legged friends and humans to a develop long lasting, healthy relationship. Unlike other dog training methods out there that emphasizes the master and pet theory, Hakuna Matata teaches you how to live harmoniously with your dog. Hakuna Matata taught myself and my pet that it isnt about making your dog listen to you but rather rewarding them for positive behaviors that they do. Instead of yelling at them because they had an accident or wont sit still is counterproductive and was clear after our first class. Coco responds a lot better to hey, if you sit, you get a treat rather than youre not getting a treat because you are barking. Think about it, when you were in school, did you yourself respond better when the teacher punished you? Aryana works with your pace and with what you feel you need to focus on with your pup. Every week Aryana asks how the week went with the new behavior your furry friend was taught and from there you can decide if you want to work on the behavior more or move on to the next one. What I love most about Aryana and Hakuna Matata is that its not just a cookie cutter class. Aryana takes her time and really gets to know you, your pup and what you feel you need to work on. And she approaches it in a way that you are not intimidated. Shes not there to train your dog only, shes there to train you as well. So if you want to have well behaved pets, as your pet would like a well behaved human, Call Aryana @ Hakuna Matata Dog Training!

    Frequently asked questions

    I like to meet you and the dog first to see what I am working with. 

    After the consultation, we go through a step by step game plan.

    If you like what you see and the game plan seems workable for you and your dog, then we start training!

    I price according to size of dog, what the dogs needs are, and travel compensation
