Bringing Focus to High Drives

Pet care experience

I am a dedicated dog trainer that focuses on two very different behaviors: 1) In-home training for high-energy dogs, and 2) situational immersion for anxious and shy dogs. I provide basic training during in home visits that help your dog acclimate to the behavior that we are happy to reward so you are mentally capable of interpreting your dog's needs. This means I accurately portray your dog's behavior without your presence and provide feedback that empowers you to be the leader that your dog and I believe you are. For high-energy dogs, I utilize a 3:1 rule. For every 3rd session, I relinquish absolute control in favor of observing their natural understanding of their environment. For the remaining two of our sessions, I don't budge on standards and focus on building your dogs understanding of the world to achieving a sense of contentment in a world full of stimuli. For low-energy and sensitive dogs, I focus on spending quality time until trust is built enough to start introducing triggering stimuli. I often use massages (yes, you read that right) and deliciously-smelly homemade treats to build trust over a short period of time. I have the ability to bring one or both of my dogs during visits in order to help with socialization issues. My older dog, Hugo, has been used to help train aggressive dogs and my puppy, Copper, can match high levels of energy but be an example to those dogs who need help jumping out of their high-drive. I know dog CPR and have a first aid kit specifically built for animals. I can administer oral and ophthalmic medications.

Always on time and great with special instructions. My dog is always tired and content after his time with Danielle.

Danielle was able to work with two extremes. Caring for my hyper herd dog, Joyous who is used to a farm and my old man Harley that was recently injured and needed special massages throughout the walk. I paid for about a 2-hour walk that left both of them exhausted. She brought along 2 liters of water for the trip and her own homemade treats that the dogs ate up quickly. I've been using Danielle's services for years but she recently got this website going and asked me to work with her here so there is a paper trail. I have never known any dog to not like her and she's done wonders rehabilitating Hugo.
