Talk to your dogs. They're listening!
Talk to your dogs. They're listening!
As a certified, Force free dog trainer, I have 20+ yrs of dog training under my belt. I specialize in Owner Trained Service Dogs (OTSD), and fear based behavior modification. I am dedicated to using only Force Free positive reinforcement techniques to ensure your dog is happy, healthy, and well adjusted.
Not everyone learns the same way! That's why I offer customized training protocols that are tailored to meet your dog's specific needs and learning style. I work by session (rather than hourly) so you and your dog get the most out of our training time.
I have extensive experience working with shelters, rescues, and service dog organizations, as well as individuals and families. From training puppy manners and basic obedience to Service Dog accreditations, CGC (Canine Good Citizen) prep and evaluations, and behavioral issues like aggression, anxiety, or fear, Its all in my wheelhouse! I will work closely with you and your dog to address the root cause of the problem and develop a plan to overcome it. No Band-aid fixes here! By listening to what your dog is trying to communicate, we can break through the behavioral barrier and create a bond based in trust and respect.
That means I wont ever use force or aversive tools to train your dog. I employ relationship based training and positive reinforcement methods only
