“I love your dog. I know we haven’t met yet, but I adore your barking Maggie, your leash-pulling Jake, your jumping Lucy, and even your growling Charlie. Using a positive approach, I will teach you how to change behaviors and worries while building a trusting partnership with your dog.
Shhh...don’t tell anyone, but that’s what dog training is all about! Before you know it, you might just end up with a polite pup."

MY TRAINING APPROACH
Kindness and science. Those are my training tools.
I am dedicated to dog-friendly, science-based training principles that focus on positive reinforcement, building trust, and having fun. I do not use any equipment or techniques that rely on fear, force, pain, or intimidation. Ever.
Using a humane approach rooted in the science of animal learning means you can effectively address behavior issues while building a fantastic partnership with your pup. Your dog learns manners and skills. You learn to truly understand your dog.
Don't worry, train happy!
