About Dog Gone Problems

Welcome to Dog Gone Problems. We are a team of Dog Behaviorists and Dog and Puppy trainers who exclusively use positive reinforcement (+R) and Force Free (FF) methods when we teach or train dogs. We do not use shock collars, choke chains, pinch or prong collars as these tools cause pain and are unnecessary to train a dog.

We started out exclusively working as dog behaviorists who specialized in coming up with custom solutions to stop unwanted dog behavior problems. But due to overwhelming demand we have now expanded to also offer in home dog training and Omaha’s best puppy socialization classes.

For for 99% of our dog behavior clients, we only need one session to put a stop to your unwanted dog behavior problems (after rehabilitating thousands of dogs, we’ve only needed more than one session for less than 1% of our clients). We are able to achieve such quick and long lasting results because we show you all the things you may be doing that may confuse your dog or contribute to the problem, as well as how to fix it.
