What can we help you and your dog conquer today?

 

DOG-animal Aggression

When your dog growls, lunges at, or even bites your other pets or someone else’s pets, it’s distressing. You can immediately feel stress, defeat, and/or frustration. We understand. You aren’t alone. Many of our students have dealt with these very situations and overcome them. We can help you win back a peaceful household and hold your hand every step of the way.

Barking & Lunging On Leash

Sometimes dogs can be well-behaved in every other aspect of their lives, but as soon as you put the leash on, suddenly they are barking, lunging, and even growling at people or other animals. What gives!? Well, walking on leash can be a frustrating or overly-exciting experience for many dogs. If this sounds like your situation, we can teach you how to enjoy walks with your dog.

DOG-Human Aggression

Dogs are supposed to be man’s best friend. So, when your dog turns their aggression towards you, a family member, or even a stranger, it can cause alarm. Should you punish your dog? Should you brush it off as a one-off thing because Fido is usually so sweet? We know how to help using behavior modification techniques that are easy and humane.

Manners & Puppy Training

Our basic manners and puppy training services are unlike any other. Because we specialize in behavioral concerns, we not only teach you the basics, we also teach you about preventing more concerning behaviors. Our manners and puppy training services are taught in three formats: workshops at our 11-acre farm in Braxton, MS, which is minutes from the Jackson, MS metro, webinars, and virtual group classes.

Fearful & Nervous Dogs

Seeing your dog struggle with fears that impact their quality of life is one of the most difficult situations an owner can face. We have helped dogs with more common fears like vacuums, loud sounds, being home alone, and men wearing hats — to more bizarre fears of things like plastic bags, Halloween decor, and new situations in general.

Socialization & Prevention

Maybe your dog is pretty well-behaved right now, but what about in the future? Every month we introduce new topics, new professional speakers, and new ways to learn - even if you have a busy schedule. Our weekend workshops, enrichment opportunities, webinars, and virtual group classes are packed with information and help for the proactive dog owner and even professional dog trainers and behavior consultants.

 

About Faithfully Yours Dog Training

 

For over 18 years, Lauren Tsao has been utilizing her professional dog training expertise to improve the lives of many pups. After struggling with a troubled pup herself and not finding any local support for help, she took matters into her own hands by attending professional workshops and seminars alike - ultimately leading to the launch of Faithfully Yours Dog Training in 2014.

Lauren has taken her expertise in the fields of Applied Animal Behavior & Welfare and Psychology into consideration while creating Faithfully Yours Dog Training. Offering personalized training and behavior solutions for dog owners throughout central and southern Mississippi, she helps bring dogs back into their best lives - whether their battling aggression, hyperactivity, or fear-related issues - so they can experience a full life with minimal behavioral barriers. In 2022, clients voted Lauren as #1 on SniffSpot’s Top Dog Trainer List – affirming her commitment to positive but effective methods of training!

Afterwards put those new skills to use taking an energizing stroll down one of many trails through pine trees alongside streams made possible by Braxton's natural environment. Come experience how we create low-stress environment that will not only support your training for your fearful or aggressive dog, but also enrich their lives every single time they visit Faithfully Yours Dog Training.

Our Methods

At Faithfully Yours Dog Training, we teach dogs and their people how to communicate without the use of pain or discomfort by following the standards set by the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior. We do not use prong, choke, or shock collars in any of our programs. We foster behavior change by reinforcing desirable behaviors using positive reinforcement. During our programs and classes, we teach owners how to achieve their training goals humanely with minimal stress for their dog.

With over a decade of experience, our certified dog trainer has trained many animal species - from marine mammals, birds, giant tortoises, horses, cats, hamsters and rabbits. No matter how great the challenge, we believe in the unique power of fostering strong relationships between animal and owner to achieve positive results with positive reinforcement-based training techniques. If positive reinforcement-based training works for all these species, it will help you train your dog - even if they are “stubborn”, aggressive, or unruly.
