If you are looking for a certified dog professional who has equally strong skills with humans as with their dogs, you have come to the right place. After 16 years as an educator, I thrive on helping my students have “ah-ha” moments and understand the “why” behind the learning.
In my work with dogs, I use only positive training techniques. That means that I teach them without pain, intimidation, threats or force. You’ll probably find that aside from my sarcastic nature, I tend to treat my human clients and their kids the same way – with support, encouragement and praise.
While I specialize in working with families who have kids and dogs, I LOVE working with people who have puppies or who are first time dog owners. My goal is to help you build your dog’s confidence (and yours!), have fun and deepen your relationship with your dog.
I offer dog behavior consultations, via video, training sessions (via video or in the real world), Private Family Dog training classes for you and the kids, and training bundles to help your dog live safely with babies and toddlers.
Looking for an online class to help you to prepare your dog for a new addition or to live safely with your toddlers? I’ve got you covered. And for ongoing support, my membership program, Thriving Parents, may be perfect for you and your family.
I certified as an AKC Canine Good Citizen evaluator am available to both administer this test and offer workshops to help you prepare (to be a smashing success)!
