About Carlos Zarate

Training your Dog Furrr-Fectly

Welcome to my website! I’m Carlos, a Certified Master Dog Trainer based in New York with over 20 years of experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My extensive experience and deep passion for dogs have shaped my approach to training, which is focused on helping both dogs and their owners build strong, trusting, and respectful relationships. Whether you’re located in the bustling heart of New York City or the surrounding areas, I’m here to provide the expertise and support you need for your dog’s training journey.

Over the past two decades, I’ve had the privilege of working with a variety of dogs, each with their own personality and challenges, helping them achieve lasting behavioral changes and fostering better communication between owners and their pets. My training philosophy is built on positive reinforcement and tailored techniques that take into account the unique needs and personalities of each dog. Whether it’s resolving behavioral challenges, enhancing obedience, or providing specialized training, I am committed to creating a rewarding experience for both you and your dog.

Training Your Dog Furrr-Fectly

Training your dog should be a joyful and rewarding experience—one that enhances the connection between you and your pet. A well-trained dog isn’t just obedient; they are confident, well-adjusted, and ready to thrive in any environment. At the heart of training your dog furrr-fectly lies a balanced, customized approach that meets the unique needs of both you and your canine companion.

Understanding the Foundations of Furrr-Fect Training

Training isn’t just about commands—it’s about creating a balanced dynamic between you and your dog. The goal of training is to ensure your dog’s behaviors align with your expectations, while also respecting their instincts, energy levels, and personality. This creates a happy, well-behaved dog who is comfortable in various environments, from your home to public spaces.
