Understand Your Dog. Train Together
Every dog is different — and training should be too. My goal is to help you understand your dog, find what works for both of you, and build skills that actually fit into your everyday life.
What to expect
Consultation
Every training journey starts here. This 1.5–2 hour in-person session is all about getting to know your dog - not just the behaviors you want to change, but what’s behind them and what works for your individual dog. I’ll observe your dog, motivation, and interaction with you. We’ll try the first exercises together, and I’ll show you how to work with your dog. After our session, you’ll receive a personalized training plan with clear recommendations and exercises to continue at home. From there, you can work independently or book additional training sessions for more hands-on support.
Sessions
Each training session is planned in advance based on your goals and your dog’s individual needs. During the session, you will be the one working directly with your dog, while I guide you through each step - demonstrating when needed, giving feedback, explaining the “why” behind each exercise, and helping you build effective skills. After the session, I’ll outline what to practice at home so you can continue making progress between meetings.

Experience
I train dogs using science-based, reward-based methods that are effective, and tailored to each individual dog. Every dog (and family) is different, so I offer an individual, realistic training plans based on your dog’s age, temperament, history, and your lifestyle. We’ll look at the whole picture: daily routines, enrichment, stress levels, and clear communication. I focus on trust and clarity, so training feels good for both ends of the leash.
