Empowering Canine Confidence, One Paw at a Time.
At The Proficient Pup, we understand that having a dog can be a source of joy, comfort, and love. However, it can also be a source of frustration, anxiety, and fear when our furry friends exhibit behaviors that we don't understand or can't manage. As a certified dog trainer and canine massage therapist, I, Lynn Webb, have dedicated my career to helping dog owners like you build a stronger bond with your canine companions.
Our Philosophy
We take a comprehensive approach to dog training and wellness, focusing on building confidence, comfort, and relaxation in our canine clients. We believe that every dog is unique and deserves to be treated with kindness, respect, and compassion. Our mission is to educate and empower dog owners to improve the well-being of their dogs, while also enhancing the human-animal bond.
Our Services
We offer a range of services designed to address specific needs and challenges that you and your dog may be facing. Our services include:
Private Dog Training
Our private dog training program is designed to help you overcome common behavioral issues, such as fear, anxiety, and aggression. We use positive reinforcement training methods that are fun, effective, and rewarding for both you and your dog.
Canine Massage
Our canine massage therapy program is designed to promote relaxation, reduce stress and anxiety, and improve overall health and well-being. Our certified massage therapists use a range of techniques to ease muscle tension, improve flexibility, and enhance circulation.
Separation Anxiety Training
Our separation anxiety training program is designed to help you and your dog overcome the challenges of being apart from each other. We use positive reinforcement training methods to build confidence and reduce anxiety in both you and your dog.
Rattlesnake Avoidance Training
Our rattlesnake avoidance training program is designed to teach your dog to respond to common danger signs, such as the sound of a rattlesnake, and to safely and calmly leave the area. This can be especially important if you and your dog enjoy hiking or exploring in areas where rattlesnakes are common.
Our Expertise
As a certified dog trainer and canine massage therapist, I have spent years honing my skills and building my knowledge of positive reinforcement training methods. I have worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes, from puppies to seniors, and have a deep understanding of canine behavior and psychology.
Why Positive Reinforcement?
Positive reinforcement training is the most effective and humane way to train dogs. It focuses on rewarding desired behaviors, rather than punishing undesired ones, and is scientifically proven to work. It's also ethical and enjoyable, creating a strong bond between you and your dog.
