My name is Alex Eaton and I started Out of This World Dog Training to offer the people and pets of Central Ohio an exciting and effective method of training. I am a certified professional dog trainer. I received my certification through Animal Behavior College and graduated with honors. I have also helped train service dogs for Canine Companions for Independence. I have spent time volunteering at Franklin County Dog Shelter as well as being a consultant for other dog trainers in the area. When necessary I consult with local veterinarians to make sure that my methods, nutritional information and medical advice are 100% up to date and correct. I take your pet's health and well-being as seriously as humanly possible! I believe that owning a pet is an amazing and rewarding experience, but also a responsibility, not a luxury. Training your dog properly will lead you to a greater understanding of the animal and I firmly believe in the owner-pet relationship being one of mutual understanding and respect. I immerse you fully in the training process and use dog psychology to more effectively teach your dog. I find that owners end up learning as much, if not more, than their pets. Contact me to find out more about my unique approach to training.

Behavioral issue focus:

We use positive reinforcement to address behaviors ranging from puppy nipping to adult dog aggression.

Dog training methods:

We do a short in home evaluation at the beginning of the first lesson to develop a training plan. We then use reward based training to improve communication and focus skills. We continue from there by increasing distractions until the behavior has improved/resolved.

Why I became a dog trainer:

I always feel my most invigorated when working with dogs. It is such a great feeling to see a human and their dog truly connect.

My favorite part of being a dog trainer:

Seeing the joy a well behaved dog can bring to a family

My #1 dog training tip:

Communication is key! Your dog doesn't know English so you will need to teach them!
