Rada Dog Training builds joyful, lasting bonds between you and your pup through science-backed, force-free methods. Because every dog deserves to learn with kindness.
I never use force, harsh corrections, or fear to change behavior. Science shows that positive reinforcement creates happier, more confident dogs who love to learn.
Reward-Based
I use treats, praise, and play to reward the behaviors you want. When dogs enjoy the learning process, they retain commands better and respond with enthusiasm.
Science-Backed
My methods are rooted in behavioral science and animal psychology. Decades of research confirm that positive reinforcement produces the most reliable, lasting results.
Bond Building
Training strengthens the relationship between you and your dog. When learning is fun and stress-free, trust deepens naturally and the bond becomes unbreakable.

Hi, I'm so glad you're here! I started Rada Dog Training because I genuinely love dogs, and I know how much it means to have a dog that feels like a true part of your family.
My approach is rooted in positive reinforcement, because dogs learn best when they feel safe, understood, and loved. No fear, no force; just patience, encouragement, and a whole lot of heart.
I work with you and your dog together, helping your whole family build real communication and lasting confidence. When your dog understands you and you understand them, everything changes.
I've spent years doing this, including training my own dog all the way to earning his AKC Canine Good Citizen and AKC Community Canine certifications. That journey taught me so much, and I bring every bit of it into the work I do with your family.
Every dog deserves to thrive. Every family deserves to enjoy being with their dog. Let's make that happen together.

The Approach
Why Positive Reinforcement?
Modern behavioral science is clear, dogs trained with positive methods are happier, more confident, and learn faster. This is why I commit fully to force-free training.
No Punishment
I never use choke chains, shock collars, prong collars, or any form of physical correction. Fear and pain damage the bond between you and your dog and can create new behavioral problems.
Understanding Behavior
Instead of labeling dogs as "dominant" or "stubborn," I look at why behaviors occur. Every unwanted behavior has a root cause, and understanding it is the first step to changing it.
Teaching YOU Too
Training doesn't end when the session does. I teach you the skills and knowledge to continue building your dog's confidence and good behavior for the rest of their life.

My Training Services
From private in-home sessions to virtual training worldwide, I have the right program for every dog and every family.
Train the Whole Family
Your dog doesn't live with just one person, so why train with just one? These private sessions teach every member of your household the same language your dog understands. When everyone's on the same page, the training sticks, the bond deepens, and harmony at home follows.
