Hi! My name’s Emma, and I’m a 25 y/o college student in Boston. About 3 years ago, I took a year off of college and worked my way up to manager at a puppy-only daycare! I was in charge of caring for anywhere between 25-30 pups a day, all under the age of 1. We worked in teaching potty training, preventing resource guarding, and socialization with other puppies and humans. We had just about every breed you could think of, and so many I never heard of! While working, I took an online certificate course on dog cognition and emotion. I’ve also grown up with dogs and have watched countless dogs for friends/family. I have extensive experience working with and watching my old roommate’s dog who is reactive, and I’ve learned what to look for in body language and signals through her! I now have my own 5 month old lab puppy, Bumi. He is my absolute world, and he has taught me so much. He’s my PTSD service dog in training. In the past few years, I did nothing but research training, nutrition, wellness, and how dogs develop. It’s been fascinating and I’ve fallen in love with training!
