History
I have officially been in business since 2015 but have been training pups all of my life. I have used positive training methods since I was a child luring my first dog through a homemade agility course in my basement made of dressers, ladders and hula hoops. My business is growing quickly and I am excited to finally be doing what I love most in life.
Specialties
As with most in this field, I have loved and had a connection with animals my entire life. I am an honors graduate of Animal Behavior College where I earned my certification as an ABC certified dog trainer. My year-long commitment to this program provided me with a formal education in canine obedience, training and understanding canine behavior and it's motives. My certification, education and experience provide me the skills required to effectively and humanely train your dog while keeping alive the spark that makes your dog so special to you. In addition to my certification, I have a certificate of completion in pet CPR and first aide. I am a professional member of the Association of Professional Dog Trainer (APDT), a member of the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC) as well as the Pet Professional Guild (PPG). I am also bonded and insured. I keep up-to-date with the most valuable and relevant information on current training procedures. Since my graduation from ABC, I have attended lectures and seminars with a combined content of 175+ hours and will continue to update my education and welcome and implement new and improved training techniques. During the course of my training program, I will teach you to teach your dog respect and manners using luring, shaping, capturing and molding. We will watch your dog grow and learn to become a well behaved family member.
