I've been around cats and dogs all my life, and one in particular that made me realize I wanted to work with animals. I unfortunately had to give up after I became homeless, and I've been told that I did an incredible job training him. He is the reason I have dedicated my life to the goal of dog training and opening a shelter/rescue. I've sat for many people over the years, and I'm exceptional at understanding a dogs feelings. I make sure they feel comfortable and happy, never fearful or sad. I don't look at myself as above any creature, but socially the dog must be at the "bottom" of the pack/family to ensure everyone's safety, especially the dog's. I don't mean as in alpha vs beta, dominance and aggression. I prefer the calm, assertive, and non violent approach when it comes to training, backed by modern dog behavioral science. I have a daughter who I'm adamant about teaching proper boundaries with animals, and teaching her to love and respect all creatures. She's a precocious, head strong, and wild little girl, and she absolutely loves cats and dogs. I also offer training for your babies should you need it. If your dog has trouble listening; pulling on the leash; dashing out of the front door; resource guarding; aggression; whatever the problem behavior is, I can help you train them to behave the way you need them to for your safety, other people's safety, and most importantly for their own safety. If you need training, you can message me, and we will set up a meet and greet for that so we can start our sessions, because I'll need you to participate in training if we want to keep those behaviors.
