At Tried and True Canines, we believe that every dog has the ability to learn through positive reinforcement dog training methods. We advocate the use of reward-based methods that aim to create a fun and safe learning environment so everyone can be successful, without fearing judgment, harsh corrections, or punishment. We service Monroeville, PA and the surrounding areas, and are currently offering private, in-home dog training services to assist with puppy training, adult basic manners and life skills, and select behavior modification services including, but not limited to, reactivity, aggression, and fear/anxiety.
