PSYCHO RRICKY - The Original Psycho Dawg
The dog, the myth, the legend; the dog that started it all— Rricky! Ricky taught me more than I could ever teach him. Upon meeting him, it was easy to see what an incredibly strong, agile, and clever dog he was. However, he had also developed quite a reputation for being... difficult.
Rricky had bitten four people and sent one of them to the hospital. Rricky was then sent to my kennel as a last resort. As a team, we spent hours getting to know him to see where the issues were and start at the root of his biting problem.
He had all the potential in the world but all anyone could see where his flaws were. However, with a little bit of guidance, patience, and love, Rricky went on to have a successful career as a military working dog until his retirement in 2020.
Ricky passed away in December of 2023 but made an impact on many people's lives. He will forever remain in my mind and Psycho Rricky the dog that got me into the rabbit hole of dog training and helping any aggressive dog I meet.

MAYA - The Spunky Ambassador
Maya may not have a military background or any working class pedigree, but that didn't stop her from being an absolute menace to society from the jump! She came from a long line of feisty matriarchs whose favorite past times included terrorizing neighborhood livestock, being on a first name basis with local animal patrol, etc.
I guess it should have come to no surprise when she started eating the walls of my apartment & dragging me down SEVERAL flights of stairs.
It wasn't long before I realized she was not for the faint of heart. She tested my patience on a daily basis & had many people questioning why I had chosen such a "difficult" dog, but all I could see was her potential. I remember thinking, "damn this kid has a lot of SPUNK, I love that!"
From then on, she has challenged me to rise to the occassion & consistently work on bettering myself just so that I can keep up with her. She is a true Psycho Dawg <3

Training Philosophy
Here at Psycho Dawg Training and Consultations, we are focused on building a solid training foundation through the use of a marker-based communication system, so that our dogs understand exactly what we want from them. We firmly believe in taking a balanced approach to dog training. In doing so, we always begin by using positive reinforcement techniques and integrate a variety of tools as needed based on every dog's unique personality and behavioral issues. Just like humans have different learning styles and techniques that work best for them, every dog learns differently as well, and we are committed to discovering what works best for every dog under our care.
