As many puppies and adopted dogs join their new homes thise spring, it’s a great time to reflect upon the influence early dog training can have in shaping a home that’s safe, loving and peaceful for both human family members and pets. Don't wait until your new puppy or adopted dog develops bad habits to break! Start your training now! Preventative training is much easier! Still, it's never too late to learn, so if you need help with behavioral problem solving, we offer that, too.
Picture Perfect Pets offers both group and private dog training for the family dog as well as fine pet & family portrait photography. As the saying goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words." Click over to Bette Yip's portrait photography portfolio, and let the images speak for themselves.
Also visit the dog training tab of this site to learn why Picture Perfect Pets has become one of the Boston area's favorite positive reinforcement and "clicker" based dog training programs. If you are new to clicker training, don't be shy! Feel free to contact us to learn what it's all about.
Please note: Although use of a clicker in the beginning of your dog training program is highly recommended, an appropriate verbal reward marker may be used instead. We do NOT use prong or choke collars in classes. If you need help choosing a dog-friendly pull-management tool, please ask.
Whether you have a new puppy, or an adolescent or adult dog that needs a review of (or introduction to) the basics, we have small group dog training classes and private dog training options to help you reach your goals.
