Private Consultations

Dogs behave in all kinds of ways that we love and also sometimes in ways that can frustrate and even frighten us. I can help you with your dog’s behavior.

Are you planning to bring home a puppy or dog? A consultation beforehand will set up your dog and your family for success.

Janice Z Dog Training's methods are always effective, humane, rewards-based, and force-free.

From My Wonderful Clients

Colby

“Due to an emergency, I had to care for a family dog. I've never lived with a dog so I contacted Janice Z for help with Colby's jumping and biting in the mornings. Her advice worked like a charm, making that early morning encounter much less stressful! Her tip sheets were really helpful too, and Colby now enjoys her frozen stuffed Kong every day! I'm truly thankful for her expertise.” ~ Sara and Colby’s family, Madison, Connecticut

Colby

“She helped us think differently about dogs and training. I love her ethical and humane approach; she is an excellent teacher providing organized hands-on training. We did both online and in-person training and both methods were very good, it was a seamless process. We are enjoying Scout even more!” ~ Erica J.

Wesley

“We still struggled with our number one issue of potty training. Janice provided me with detailed instructions and advice in a way that was exactly what we needed. Not only has our puppy been doing great, but we finally feel like we know what we’re doing. I will absolutely go back to Janice for any additional training needs in the future!” ~ Saru

Wesley

“Janice began helping us when our puppy Teddy Bear was eight weeks old. We have learned from Janice how we need to establish the right way to train and manage our puppy. Our puppy can now sit, stay, lie down, ring bell to go out, knows his 'place', and comes running from anywhere with the 'magic' word. We can't believe how far he has come (and us too). Janice is AMAZING!” ~ Cindy and JD

Lincoln

“Lincoln has been doing wonderful! We've even gone unleashed at the dog park and she responds and runs to me when called! Also, Lincoln has been uncrated for the last 3 weeks and done wonderfully. So far we are doing well and Lincoln is a happy girl!” ~ Laura

“Janice Z is an incredible trainer and we feel so lucky to have found her! Janice breaks down each skill into a series of steps. It was incredible that in 6 weeks we went from having a dog that ignored us to one that will come racing with glee back to us even while wrestling at the dog park. We were initially worried the Zoom experience might feel limiting, but Janice has it set up incredibly well.” ~ Heena and Mike
