Welcome

 

Have you overused food as a training tool and now cannot get away from it?

Overusing food as a base for training can cause many problems.

Learn how to get the best results without using just food as a reward.

 

Wet Nose offers group instruction at four levels (Puppy, Beginners, Intermediate, Advanced and Agility) with an emphasis on making training a fun and positive experience for both you and your dog. Family participation is encouraged to promote more consistency with training. Please see our Classes page for more detail about classes available in your area. New classes are starting soon!

Dave Wieczorek, the founder of Wet Nose, has over 32 years of experience in dog obedience and behavior training. His open mind, patience and extensive background in training, modification and reconditioning enable him to provide effective solutions. He consults with veterinarians when necessary, has participated in obedience competitions, and attends numerous seminars - all to strengthen the bonds between dogs and their owners, ensuring that relationships are rewarding for both.

Dave is a member in good standing of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers and is on the Training and Behavior Board of Illinois Doberman Rescue Plus.
