prioritize your goalsTrain everything you need and none of the things you don't. EQ dogs eliminates the fluff and sticks to streamlined training plans that directly tackle your goals.

We've tried training our dog before, but it didn't work.

At EQ dogs we want to know what you think an ideal day with your dog would look like. With this information we can create personalized goals and milestones for you and your dog to achieve together. We know you need help, so we'll never leave you hanging or wondering what to do. As things advance we'll have homework sheets to track your progress, trainer notes and assessments at key points in your program, along with plenty of support to make sure you feel good about what you're learning. We'll help you stay consistent with teaching your dog their new habits, acting as your second alarm clock to get you up and going.
Try not to think of us as just your dog trainer, but also your dog-coach that's there for you every step of the way! |

When I was just starting out training, I felt like I had tried everything with my adolescent intact male - many classes from different instructors both online and in person all had few answers on how to get him to want to engage with me. After working with Ryleigh, I had a concrete game plan on what to work on... and FINALLY was able to get him to want to work with me!
He is now five years old and the best dog ever. I've also used the techniques I learned with Ryleigh with two of my subsequent dogs (along with hundreds of student dogs), and have been able to prevent or fix issues with minimal frustration for both dogs and humans. Thank you, Ryleigh!! ❤️

How to Turn Daily Practice into a Habit, Instead of a Chore.One of the main obstacles our students face on their journey to dog training success is finding the time to practice the homework they’re assigned, life is hectic! Between taking the kids to school or going to work, it can feel like the day gets away from you. Before you know it, you’re getting ready to turn in for the night and you haven’t trained your dog at all. Oh well, there’s always tomorrow. But it doesn’t take long before tomorrow turns into next week, or your next session with us, and no practice has occurred in the days between. Oops!
As you’ve learned by now, the most important part of a successful dog training plan is... |
We Made The Sniffspot List: The Best Dog Trainers in Minnesota of 2023!Thank you to everyone who voted for us! When we were nominated by students and fellow dog trainers on social media, it was a special feeling of acceptance and recognition from people who knew us really well, and supported us from the very beginning when EQ dogs was just an idea. To learn that we actually gathered enough votes to earn a place on Sniffspot's Best Dog Trainers in Minnesota of 2023 list, in only our first year of training in the Midwest?!?! That was a genuine surprise!
Truthfully, neither of us paid too much attention after we were nominated. We didn't think... |
