Confidence-Building & Trust-Focused

*Currently, I am only offering virtual training.* I offer practical, customized training that respects each dog as an individual. My approach is humane, realistic, and based on what works for each dog and their unique situation. I take a holistic view by considering health, history, preferences, and environmental factors while prioritizing clarity, welfare, and honest expectations

What to expect

Consultation

During an initial consultation, I will ask about your dog’s background, behavior patterns, lifestyle, and household dynamics. I will also consider previous training methods you have tried. This helps me determine what factors are potentially influencing their behavior and how to create a personalized plan that makes sense for your dog and your home.

Sessions

Typically in your home

In each virtual session, we start by talking through what’s been going well and what may need adjustment. I walk you through the training steps, demonstrate when helpful, and support you as you work with your dog. I know training can sometimes feel frustrating, so I’m there to navigate challenges with you, encourage you, and tweak the plan as needed. Before we finish, we’ll set achievable goals and simple homework for the session ahead.

Positive Reinforcement

I work with dogs as sentient, feeling beings who deserve safety, clarity, and respect. My approach focuses on evidence-based, positive reinforcement methods that build trust and confidence. I do not use any tools or techniques that can cause fear, pain, or intimidation. Therefore, I prohibit clients to use choke chains, prong collars, electronic collars, or physical corrections.
