The Zen Dog DEN
The Zen Dog Den, LLC is a group of Certified Dog Behavior Modification Experts determined to help you and your dog live a calm and happy life together through a relationship-based approach to training.
Whether you have a brand new puppy, an excitable adult dog, or a dog struggling with anxiety or reactivity, The Zen Dog Den is here for you. Because our approach involves speaking your dog’s language and understanding their needs, we are able to help dogs at all life stages become the calm companion dog you hoped for.
The Zen Dog Den serves clients in Lancaster County, PA and surrounding areas for our In-Home Training Services, and we offer Virtual Training for clients outside of the Lancaster County, PA area.
SERVICES + APPROACH
Everyone wants a dog that can go with them to the coffee shop, tag along to the hardware store, or relax peacefully with them at the park. While some dogs can do this naturally, most dogs need help to reach this level of calm.
In our program we cultivate calm by communicating with your dog in a way they will understand and giving you simple techniques to minimize bad behavior and maximize the time spent enjoying your dog.
Our programs are designed to make training easier for you and fit your lifestyle, rather than the other way around. We offer a variety of programs to help you meet your training goals, all of which take place in the comfort of your home. Not only is that more convenient for you, but it is where your dog acts the most themself. We want to meet them where they are.
What our clients say

“Cherisse Conlon Feddock You guys are top notch! We use our training every single day. I never thought before I would be able to bring the dogs with me to walk and pick up Nora from school, with a huge crowd of people and children running by. But everyone is always so impressed (including myself) as Eve and Ruby wait patiently and calmly!!”
~Cass (with Eve & Ruby)
“The program works! I am so, so thrilled with how today went. Also, it thrilled my heart that you asked Nash and me to demonstrate the pass-by on this past Sat’s pack walk. My how far we’ve come! When your husband was walking with me (thanks for that extra help by the way), he asked me how Nash has been doing – and he’s still clearly anxious about people in my house, but his obedience and reactivity to other dogs has gotten SOOOO much better. Thank you, thank you! Working with you and your team has been a game changer.”
~Melissa (with Nash)
“I had to text you and tell you that I could literally cry. Mack and I just got back from our walk. He did soooooo well! So freakin well! He walked beside me the whole time. We encountered lots of dogs and people and when he got hyper I just put him in step 1 and we waited it out and kept it moving. I just really can’t believe it. I felt like I got a better walk because I actually had to propel myself forward vs him dragging me. I’m so proud of him and so excited to be able to enjoy my dog more! Thank you so much for everything.
~Samantha (with Mack)
