Making every day the best day!

Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had two or three at a time—from Huskies, Malamutes, and wolf dogs to French Bulldogs, Border Collies, and Pit Bulls—so I learned early that every breed brings its own personality, challenges, and way of learning. Over the years, I’ve worked on the fundamentals with a wide variety of dogs and later had the opportunity to learn from an experienced trainer with a background in search and rescue, protection work, and advanced behavior training. That experience helped me expand my skills, understand dogs on a deeper level, and appreciate how much the right approach can change both a dog’s behavior and their future. Now I’m building something of my own. My goal is to keep learning, keep improving, and use the skills I’ve developed to help dogs become more confident, manageable, and successful in their homes. Most importantly, I hope to help give dogs with behavioral challenges a second chance—and keep as many as possible from being euthanized simply because they were misunderstood or never given the right training.

Scott has an inate sensibility with dogs. I have witnessed Scott pull the truck over and secure an off leash husky, while the owners were chasing after. Scott exited the truck with his dog Murphy, and without effort or incident, Murphy befriended the husky, and Scott took Murphy's leash, and secured the husky with ease. The husky was going to be surrendered to the pound the next day, and Scott opened his home that day, and took the husky in. He is a God send to dogs, and a Dog send to their humans. Scott is honest and genuine, I highly recommend his services.

I tend to favor weekends and over nights with my work schedule. However, flexibility is possible. Scheduling your pups appointments ahead will always be recommended!

Safety, trust & environment

I work with both dogs and handlers/owners to facilitate better communication. Once a dog can communicate effectively with their human, a bond deeper than “the hand that feeds me” can develop.

Pets

A typical day

I live on a quarter acre in the outskirts of Watsonville. The dogs will have free access the fenced backyard where they can run and play to their hearts content. Twice per day I take the dogs to either the beach or a park for some socialization time. If your pup is in need of some basic obedience training, I can include 1-2 training sessions.
