Helping You and Your Dog Learn…Together
Understanding Fido enjoys working with dogs of all shapes, sizes and backgrounds. We have a 20-year relationship volunteering with, and fostering for, dog rescue groups. As such, we've seen a lot of interesting scenarios (and we have a special spot in our hearts for rescued dogs). The positive, rewards-based training services we provide are offered in-home, and in the community, for both puppies and adult dogs. Virtual sessions are also available...and extremely effective...in many situations. From puppy basics to puzzling behaviors, separation anxiety to reactivity, we'd love to help you and your dog find your footing as you navigate life as a team.
About the Business
Founded by self-proclaimed dog geek Amy Cranmer, Understanding Fido provides fun and effective training sessions that help puppies and adult dogs build their confidence, enjoy mental stimulation, and strengthen their bond with their humans. Based out of Concord, N.C. Understanding Fido is able to travel to portions of Cabarrus, Mecklenburg, Stanly, Rowan and Union counties.
What We Offer
We begin with a consultation to assess your dog’s needs. Training sessions are either private, semiprivate or small group. They can occur within your home or within the community. This is determined by your dog’s strengths, needs and comfort level. Virtual supports are also available as deemed appropriate for individual dogs and owners.
What are some situations where we are frequently called in to support families? Acclimating a puppy to his new home, promoting life skills and manners, addressing reactivity towards people or animals, navigating fearful behaviors, supporting handling difficulties, and unraveling separation anxiety top the list.
