Kansas City's Dog Behavior Specialists
I just wanted to say thank-you for all the amazing work you both have done with Chopper and Buzz. We used your month long program for both of our boys and they are truly "changed men"! Chopper went from marking all over the house to now waiting by the door to be let out and Buzz went from a stray, aggressive, dog we rescued to a beloved family member. Thank-you! … [Read more...]
03/09/2011 There are definitely not enough words to describe how great our experience with Beyond the Dog was in getting our two dogs under control. Lacey, our lab and Chaos, our Jack Russell (appropriately named by the way) had several incidents of fighting due to Lacey's guarding issues. We had to make several trips to the vet to get Chaos stitches, etc.. When I called Beyond the Dog … [Read more...]
Dear Beyond the Dog, Thank you so much for your help with Brody. We loved your suggestion of the All-Inclusive Training Program. We felt like he was making progress on just a weekly basis but we saw a greater turn around after your work with him. We are a busy household and felt like we were not consistent in our training which was not helping him be successful. We felt after your hour … [Read more...]

We have a Shorkie (Shih-tzu/Yorkie mix) who just turned a year old. His name is Racal, and there’s never been a more suited name for a puppy! Rascal is indeed a rascal. Rascal is our first dog, so we were really novices when it came to raising one. We adopted him when he was 3 months old, and for the first several months we were pretty clueless as to how to modify some of his behaviors. We … [Read more...]
Our dogs, Barclay and Charlie, were the victims of over-indulgent human parents. It started off innocently enough – we liked to sit with them on the furniture, share food with them and our “commands” were merely suggestions. It was easy to spoil them because they are relatively small – Barclay is a Chihuahua and Charlie is a Rat Terrier – and so even their worst behavior didn’t have a … [Read more...]
I was at the end of my rope, desperate to find an answer to Buck’s behavioral issues. My husband and I knew that boxer puppies needed attention and care, but at 7 months old, Buck was showing signs of more than simple puppy energy. While searching the internet I entered “K-9 trainer, separation anxiety, Kansas City.” I found Beyond the Dog and read about Sean and Kristyn, and their positive … [Read more...]
My husband and I contacted Beyond the Dog desperately in search of a ‘game changer.’ Our 2 ½ year old Basset Hound, Barney, had become aggressive towards us and was constantly barking at us for attention. We had already worked with another behavioral specialist, but did not get the results we had hoped for. When the specialist suggested doggie Prozac, we began to research other … [Read more...]
