I specialize in in-home training services of basic manners/obedience, single subject and moderate behavior challenges such as but not restricted to leash reactivity, excessive barking, house training, leash pulling, shy/fearful and cooperative care. Mission: To inspire and educate clients of the power in using science backed positive reinforcement training to teach their dogs sustainable behaviors needed to succeed. Vision: Every canine has the opportunity to learn how to live in a human world while being trained with methods that do not intimidate, cause fear or pain. First Aid and CPR Certified through ProPetHero.
 
Certifications: MBA
 
Job Title: Owner/Trainer
 
Training Equipment: I leverage any food, toys and life rewards pending on what the dog finds rewarding and based on what behavior we are working on. For walking I use front clip harnesses, flat standard 6' leashes as well as long leads to work on recalls safely.
 
Training Philosophy: I use only science backed modern training approaches. I use positive reinforcement to motivate your dog and to shape new behaviors.
