Welcome to Dog Training With Ashley! I'm here to offer a variety of expert dog training services designed to help dogs of all breeds and ages thrive as confident, successful and well-behaved friends. Through the use of positive reinforcement techniques, we will work together to teach your dog new skills and resolve unwanted behaviors while strengthening the bond you share. I am fully committed to helping every dog live their best life possible!

If you’re looking for personalized training for your dog, private sessions are the perfect solution! I’ll work one-on-one aside you and your pup to tackle specific training goals, whether it’s addressing behavioral challenges or enhancing obedience skills.
Private lessons are also available virtually depending on your needs.

Obedience walks are a great way for your dog to get exercise while reinforcing good manners! During these structured walks, your dog and I will focus on loose leash skills, obedience commands, and leash manners. Obedience walks are a great way for your pup to learn while staying active and enriched!

My group classes provide a fun and social environment for you and your dog to learn together! Classes are offered for all skill levels with no prerequisites. You'll have the opportunity to connect with other dog parents while learning essential information! Your pup will also enjoy valuable socialization amongst other dogs, new people and a stimulating environment!

Day training is a fun and engaging way for your dog to learn while you go about your day! This drop-off program provides individual training tailored to your dog’s specific goals, helping them build new skills and reinforce good behavior! Whether you’re short on time for extra training or want your pup to keep learning while you're at work, day training is a great alternative to private lessons!
My name is Ashley! I’m an ABCDT certified dog trainer and the owner of Dog Training With Ashley. I’m also a proud dog mom to three Australian Shepherds and they are the reason behind my career! I believe that a strong relationship based on trust is the key to setting our dogs up for a life of success. With my work I’m determined to help fellow dog parents navigate the world of training, no matter the stage, and helping their dogs be their best selves!
Research has shown us that our dogs are able to learn and retain information more efficiently with rewards! Positive reinforcement training focuses on setting dogs up for success and reinforcing the behaviors we want to see more of, rather than using intimidation or aversive methods when issues arise! This approach helps build confidence, reduce fear, and encourages dogs to actively engage in training while having fun! It also strengthens the bond between you and your dog by creating trust, clear communication, and a positive association with working together! I use only reward based methods in my training to ensure a safe, encouraging, and enjoyable experience for both dogs and their owners! This not only improves behavior in the moment, but also creates reliable results and positive associations in your dog's life.
