Dog Training
Dog training sessions for puppies & adults.
Training sessions include instruction on how to care for your dog and how to communicate with your dog clearly and effectively.
The dog will learn useful daily behaviors such as:
- Walking on a loose leash.
- Coming from a distance when called.
- Lying down and waiting patiently in a designated place.
- Ignoring food or objects on the ground. and more
Nosework
Nosework is a fun search-and-scenting activity for virtually all dogs and people inspired by working detection dogs.
The dog learns to detect a specific odor and identify its source, similar to K9 detection dogs who serve with the police and custom authorities.
- Nosework allows your dog to easily release mental and physical energy.
- Nosework boosts your dog’s self-confidence.
- Sensitive dogs that are afraid of environmental stimuli learn to concentrate on searching for odors instead of on the overwhelming environment.
- Nosework enriches and strengthens the bond between you and your dog.
My name is Esti Araten
I am a certified Karen Pryor Academy (KPA CTP) dog trainer. I specialize in nosework.
I am a Certified Nosework Instructor (CNWI), awarded by the National Association of Canine Scent Work (NACSW), the world’s leading canine scent work sports organization.
I train dogs using only positive reinforcement methods.
I do not use punishment = corrections.
My dog training practice is based on scientific knowledge, particularly the science of applied behavior analysis (ABA).
I completed a diploma in Applied Animal Behavior at the University of Washington, Washington State, USA (UW-AAB).
I have extensive knowledge of dog behavior and I make sure to keep up to date on the subject. I give lectures on dog behavior, dog training and nosework in various frameworks.
