At Half Moon Bay, Georgie Young, the owner, helps dogs and their owners learn together how to effectively understand, interpret, and communicate with each other. The training results in fewer issues and enhanced, fluid responses to cues. Owners begin to experience more of a two-way conversation versus flat compliance from their dog. The relationship thrives along with knowledge of the science of how dogs learn. If a dog has lost his way and is responding with fearful, aggressive responses, there are resolvable reasons that can be reversed through restoring the dog’s confidence. It is amazing how quickly a dog can heal and walk through life with renewed joy. Available are group classes and private sessions.
Georgie makes both the dog and the owner feel understood. One owner with an anxious, shy dog noted that Georgie stresses the relationship and teaches owners to read their dog’s body language and adjust accordingly. Another owner with a reactive Bernadoodle puppy saw huge improvement after five lessons using high-value treats, patience, and love. A Rottweiler showing aggressive tendencies stopped aggression and returned to a sweet, loving self after training. German Shepherds with anxiety and reactivity showed dramatic improvement, becoming calmer and more confident without trauma. Georgie’s approach is gentle, thoughtful, and tailored to the individual dog. She is knowledgeable, patient, and truly understands dog behavior—not just training commands, but the why behind them.
Georgie has been such an amazing trainer to my stubborn pit. I can finally vacuum around the house and get my pup to be a lot calmer when guests arrive. Georgie definitely is a dog whisperer, who has the warmest soul! I’m so happy that my stubborn girl loves her, I definitely recommend going to Half Moon Bay for any type of dog you have :))
Highly highly recommend Georgie at Half Moon Bay! She uses positive reinforcement, no shock collars. My husband and I have an anxious pit terrier rescue that whined and screeched when close to dogs. She taught us basic commands to assist in calming our dog and how to act when around other dogs to avoid issues. Our dog was able to do each command after each session! She really takes the time to get to know your dog and truly loves what she does. We do private training classes which last an hour but if we have questions in the end, she does not cut you off. Thank you Georgie!!
Georgie is the most amazing trainer I’ve ever met. She makes you and your dog feel understood. We’ve been going for a few months now and it’s been life changing for our 8 month old Pit pup. She has trained both of us and helped us become so in sync. It’s been amazing to watch and participate in. Thank you Georgie for everything!!
