What your dog learns

While you’re on a business trip, vacation or enjoying a few quiet days at home, your dog is enjoying a happy, healthy home environment learning to... 

·         Come when called every time...on or off leash!

·         Sit or Down on command

·         Settle quietly when asked...when you want them to!

·         Walk like a gentleman or lady on a loose leash!

Care trained dogs have also learned what not to do...

* Not to jump on people

* Not to charge through doors

* Not to dig in the yard

* Not to bark and chew inappropriately

* Not to climb on furniture you prefer they avoid

* Not to sniff and eat off the table or counters

* Not to be wild and uncontrollable

* Not to ignore you when you want their attention

What's on your list?

 

The Force Free Method™: An Accelerated Approach

Fast, friendly, gentle results!

Have Off Leash control of your dog in 10 days! This customized, hi-tech, remote collar training program is designed to take you and your dog quickly and reliably through the basic commands and give you a way to resolve problem behaviors.

We're located in the NW Suburbs of Chicago. Our facilities are fenced. The home environment in which we work allows us to recreate the home environment and customize the training of your dog to suit your unique needs.

 
Your dog is not living in a kennel while at Care Boarding School for dogs. He's living in a professional dog trainer's home. This allows us to observe and interact with your dog in a real home environment.
 
Families do not have trouble with their dog's behavior in a kennel. So we don't train in a kennel. We teach at home, in the yard, and in the neighborhood.
 
By playing with your dog while we train, he is exposed to every situation you encounter in your family life. He gently and quickly learns what is expected of him...all with no force.
 
We give you results that will last in your home from the day he returns. And we guarantee it.
 
Frankly, dogs just love us...we're that good.

 

We are happy to discuss other things you want for your dog to be safe and happy in your home. We teach your pet in our own home, using gentle methods for rapid learning and reliable results that last in your home. We customize the training for your dog to meet your unique needs and goals.

 

 Ten happy days in our home...A lifetime of happiness in yours!

What we do simply astounds many of our clients. We take unruly, boisterous dogs and turn them into gentlemen or ladies in a short time, using no force and no harsh words.

Not much comes with a lifetime guarantee. But that's what we offer on your dog's training.

OUR GUARANTEE

How can we guarantee it?

Simple. That's because our training is unusually effective. Plus it lasts. When we return your happy camper to you, he or she will be well behaved. In a 2 hour orientation, we'll show you how to maintain your dog's excellent behavior. Working with your dog at home will require no extra time from you. Simply live with your dog as we'll show you in the orientation, and it's highly unlikely you'll experience loss of training. 

What if I do experience loss of training?

Call us at no charge. Telephone behavior consultations are free for the life of your dog. Most issues can be resolved easily on the phone. 

What if a phone call doesn't fix my problem?

In the rare event that you are not satisfied with your dog's behavior should we need to advise you by telephone, we'll simply book you a no-charge appointment to bring your dog to our facility. Together, we'll resolve the problem...quickly, effectively, and at no charge. 

What if my dog really needs further training after that?

If an in-person appointment does not resolve the issue, simply bring your dog back to our facility and we'll work with your dog until we've fixed the problem. No training charges will apply, but if your dog overnights with us, a boarding fee will apply on a per night basis. 

What exactly does the guarantee cover?

The guarantee covers all the training issues originally established when booking your dog.

 It's Force Free and...

We guarantee our training for the rest of your dog's life!  

Dog training is "cheap insurance" compared to ...

·         Losing furniture and possessions to destructive behaviors. 

·         Losing your dog when he won't come 

·         Stressful living with an out-of-control dog        

Available Dates: Please call for available dates at 847 426 5089. If you wish, you may bring your dog for a free evaluation and demonstration of our method. It's force free! Or you can reserve your advance booking now. Just give us a call.  

The ForceFree Method

The ForceFree Method™ is new. So new, in fact, that only a very limited number of skilled trainers have ever even heard of it. Mary Mazzeri has refined this method  to yield an approach that is amazingly gentle and that works with virtually all dogs.

The method works quickly, yet is calming. In a free demonstration, you'll see your dog's behavior change in front of your eyes. That's not the best part though. The interesting aspect is how HAPPY your dog's attitude will be. You'll watch him calm and change his behavior as he learns.

How long does it take us to show your dog how to walk on a loose leash, for example? Between two and five minutes.

What will you see? You'll see a wagging tail and a relaxed dog during the entire process. What won't you see? You won't see any force and you won't hear a harsh word.

The ForceFree Method™ will change your dog's life for the better. Why do we GUARANTEE it for the lifetime of your dog? Because it works!

Why do I train dogs?

Because dogs are honest.
Because they love without condition.
Because they teach me.
Because they adore me with their eyes.
Because pleasing me makes them happy.
Because they love me more than they love themselves.
Because it gives me joy to see people and their dogs learn how to communicate effectively.

 

Our Philosophy & Goals

Our philosophy is simple. Improve the life of both dog and family. All too often, unruly dogs do not fully enjoy life because their families constantly become upset and frustrated with them. This is difficult for both family and dog.

Our mission is simple. Make both dog and family happy -for the life of your dog.

What does is take to make your dog happy? He will thrive when you give him leadership and attention.

Making the family happy is a bit more complex. Families typically want their dog to:

* Come when called, every time, on or off leash.

* Walk nicely on a loose leash without pulling

* Sit until released

* Down until released

Families also want their dogs:

* Not to jump on people
* Not to charge through doors
* Not to dig in the garden
* Not to bark and chew inappropriately
* Not to climb on furniture you prefer they avoid

* Not to sniff and eat off the table and counters.

* Not to be wild and uncontrollable

* Not to ignore you when you want their attention.

The question is how to do that in a reasonable timeframe using gentle, forceless methods?

Why forceless? Most people just don't feel good yelling at their dogs or yanking on a dog's collar. Moreover, doing so just turns the training process into a contest of willpower. Anyone who has ever lived with a dog knows they have an endless supply of willpower. So simply forcing your dog to behave leaves them forever looking for an opportunity to outwit you.

We do not "clicker train." These methods do work well for competition dogs who must perform routines under controlled conditions. We find them less reliable when trying to stop unwanted behaviors in the real world. Clicking a clicker or offering a food to bribe a dog simply will not stop your dog from chasing down a squirrel.

Our method involves no yelling or leash yanking. Food is used judiciously to initiate desired behaviors but our goal is to build a great relationship between you and your dog.

What we do is calming and effective. Frankly, this must be seen to be believed. Call us for a free behavior consultation.

Some of our Graduates

 

From a canine graduate:  "Thank you so much for taking such good care of me and teaching me all that good stuff; like walking calmly on a leash and going to my place. My humans are much happier! "   Love, Shiloh

From his proud owners: I have an interesting story about Shiloh and me that I would like to share with you - about just how important the "energy" is for the person holding the lead. To make a long story short, I had Shi out for his morning walk today when we encountered some significant challenges for him (e.g. jogger, bicycles, etc.) - all at the same time. So, I just decided I was going to tap the button when he would alert  and just keep walking like everything was great. Well, he responded perfectly and, basically, kept his cool - I was so proud of him that I made sure to take time out to praise him. Anyway, when I took off the collar to crate him when I left for work, I saw that I had forgotten to turn it on!  So, overall, our work with Shiloh and the remote collar seems to improving every day -  We can't thank you enough for providing the tools, help, and guidance that has given us that hope. Thank you so much for helping us have a better dog and training us to know how to have a better dog. We appreciate you every day! Best, Renee & Michael

 

Payton is a delightful Dobe Shepherd mix who was just a bit too exuberant about life. His people just wanted him to 'listen' to them when they called him and not drag them down the street on a walk. Payton needed to have house manners explained to him, but was a quick learner. Randy and Rita, his proud owners, have done a really nice job of maintaining his new skills.

Payton has a wonderful, friendly temperament and now he knows how to greet people politely. His reward for a job well done? Why his big, red, rubber ball, of course! "Please, Throw it farther, dad!"

 

                                              I am so happy. It is going very well! Renzo is a lot calmer now. We go for a walk every day at least one time, play catch, visit parents. (Walks are such a pleasure now!) He still wants to jump on people, but he knows that he can’t. We can eat dinner peacefully and watch TV without him jumping all   over us.

I went to Pets Mart with him yesterday and, I must admit, I was very proud. Off course, he still gets distracted, but the collar is doing a very good job.

I noticed that he wants to go back to his old habits. Like today, for example, he tried mouthing on me. But I managed to stop it right away. We are still practicing “place”. He is getting much better while we are having dinner.

 I am so pleased. It is so much less stress for us now, especially when we work.

 So far everything is working out very well; I probably won’t have any questions. But I will definitely give you a call if something comes up.

                                                                Thank you, take care!      Julia

 

 

Taffy, the precious Goldendoodle got off to a great start in life as her forward thinking owners asked her to be trained as early as possible. Even as a younger puppy, Taffy quickly learned her exercises. She has boundless energy so we balanced play and train more in line with her  age and attention span. Taffy trained up beautifully and Mike & Marilyn, her proud owners even took her to a few group classes to hone their own skills and to solidify what Taffy learned as a guest at the Mazzeri home.

 

Rosie and James were quite opposites. Rosie, the Norwegian Elkhound,  is sensitive and willing and loved the attention she was given in her training. James, the Samoyed-Husky, on the other hand, was quite the independent fellow and loved to bolt out the door and gate every chance he got! His exasperated owners were tired of chasing him all over the neighborhood and paying fines at the animal impound.

By carefully transitioning this well-practiced escape artist, we taught James that he COULD run ---AROUND instead of AWAY! James was so thrilled that he got to do what he loved best, RUN!! And his satisfied owners could hardly believe he was the same dog that they'd brought to school only 10 days earlier.

 

Boodah, the adorable Pug came to Care Dog Training as a very lovable, spoiled sweetheart. It is hard not to look into those eyes and give him everything he wants. He was not listening to his loving owners when he started the program.  During training Boodah learned commands that will keep him safe outdoors as well as indoors. Boodah is shown here with two Border Terriers practicing a sit stay exercise. They are waiting for their rewards for a job well done.

 

We're so confident in our results after many years of experience, that we literally GUARANTEE them.
