Compassionate, Enriching Trainer
I bring my own personal loving care, respect and compassion towards each dog to build trust and increase the human-dog bond. I teach guardians positive reinforcement skills to help your dog have lifelong, successful behavior.
What to expect
Consultation
During the initial consultation, we will discuss your dog’s behavioral issues(if any), and long term goals for your pup. We will develop a training plan with behavioral management strategies to ensure success with your dog and their training.
Sessions
In a first session, I will spend most of the time getting to know your pup. I will focus on building trust and bonding techniques to help your pup get in the right mental state for training. I will gather behavioral documentation from you and create a wellness plan for your pup. We will work together to adjust a proper and successful dog training plan that fits your pup’s specific needs. I will guide you and instruct homework to help build the human-animal bond between you and your dog to ensure lifelong training success.
Experience
Positive reinforcement training, classical conditioning, desensitization, counter conditioning, errorless learning, behavior adjustment training, constructional aggression training. I use force-free training techniques and never use negative punishment or force when implementing a training method.
