Smiles Dog Training

 
For the last 15 years I've worked with a variety of animal welfare organizations and companion animal behavior professionals in Southern California. During my time at the San Diego Humane Society, I had the privilege to work with and learn from some extraordinary leaders in the animal welfare and sheltering field. When I moved to Phoenix, I realized I wanted to focus in on pet guardians and their pet troubles. Keeping pets in already loving homes is an amazing way to help the shelter world, and I couldn't be happier working directly with guardians and their pets to find success and happiness through training!
