Profile: Arrow Dog & Puppy Training
I'm Lori Barnabe, founder of Arrow Dog and Puppy Training. I started Arrow for dogs and puppies of all backgrounds, but I have a particular interest in special needs shelter dogs. During my years as a County Animal Control Officer and later a Registered Veterinary Technician for a Municipal Animal Shelter, I saw first hand what led former guardians to turn their dogs over to public agencies. I also learned what kind of treatment could turn a dog’s behavior around and get them a second chance at becoming the lovable companions dogs want to be. My goal is to ensure that each dog who attends class at Arrow becomes a cherished and permanent member of their family, and a source of pride for its guardians.
With that goal in mind, before the actual training sessions begin, I develope an individual program for each student; a program that recognizes and considers a dog’s whole environment; physical, emotional, and spiritual. I like to think of this as a “Whole-istic” approach.
To learn more about this approach to good dog behavior, please contact me for a free in-home consultation.

After almost 20 years working in television, I wanted to spend more time with the most important things in my life - my dogs, Gidget & Collin. In doing so, I discovered my true passion in life and started "No Place Like Home", a Professional Pet Sitting business.
I quickly realized I needed to expand my portfolio and enrolled in ABC to become a trainer. Both my dogs were holy terrors when they were puppies and now I know why. After graduating with honors from ABC, I incorporated Dog Training into my business portfolio.
Having a true understanding of dogs has made my life and business so much more fullfilling.

My name is Daniel Dagg. I am a Bay Area Professional Dog Trainer and President of Top Dog, Inc. located in the East Bay Area. I have been involved with dogs and fascinated by animal behavior my entire life. The most important thing that I have learned about dog behavior is that they are genetically programmed to follow a leader. We must lay down a proper psychological foundation before we can build a solid behavioral and obedience structure.

A Dogʼs Best Friend offers in-home puppy & dog obedience training. My goal is to bring you and your dog to a new level of love, understanding, and fun through positive reinforcement obedience training.
I believe all dogs are eager and willing to learn, if you just learn how to communicate clearly to them in a way they understand.
I have learned through experience that training the owner how to communicate with their dog is just as important as teaching their dog basic obedience.
When you are ready to take this wonderful journey with your best friend, I am here to be your guide.

Hi my name is Mark Alten I am the owner of Alten Dog Training, working in association with, The Canine Wellness Center.com I have been involved in some kind of animal training since I was 12 years old. My two brothers and I are master falconers and have enjoyed training and hunting with hawks and falcons for many years. Many falconers use dogs in the field and I was frequently drawn to why some dogs worked well and some didn't. I later found out it all had to do with the training the dog received. This led me to helping everyday people provide their dogs with the proper training so they can become valuable pack members.Please feel free to call me anytime with any questions or inquiries.
