Create a lasting bond with your pup
I worked as a dog handler in a daycare before transitioning into training so I have a lot of experience with dog socialization and dog-to-dog interactions. I have my own selective and reactive dog and foster dogs as well so I’ve dealt with and trained through most behavior quirks under the sun first hand.

What to expect
Consultation
During the consultation, we’ll talk through what you have been struggling with/what you’re looking to get out of training. After that, I’ll come up with a tentative training plan for you and your pup.
Sessions
Depending on the training goals, we’ll meet wherever agreed for the first training session. Remember to bring yummy high value treats to use for training (kibble usually won’t cut it out in the wild) and all of their usual training gear (no retractable leashes or prong collars). After the session I’ll send a recap and anything resources from methods we practiced in the training sessions.
More info
My training philosophy is all about how to incorporate training into your everyday life, where it doesn’t feel like extra work for you or your dog. We went both parties (you and the dog) to be happy and fulfilled in their everyday lives :) I believe that every dog is an individual and there is no “one-size-fits-all” when it comes to dog training. I aim to get to know your dog and find what works best for both the dog and the human. I am a positive reinforcement CPDT-KA certified trainer and will not train using aversive methods.
