Trust, Confidence, & Communication
Something that might set me apart from other trainers—I have worked with and trained multiple different species of animals. I have years of experience working with my parents raising Beagles and Labradors for hunting and field work. We also had Yorkshire terriers and Daschunds on a large farm in New Hampshire. I've trained horses, goats, and even homing pigeons (church doves.)

What to expect
Consultation
During your consultation, I will review your dog's behaviors and any cues that they currently know. I will also go over your goals as a dog owner and what you aim to achieve with training. I will also take a look at your dogs breed and determine if any modifications should occur to the training schedule.
Sessions
During a typical session, I require any and all owners of the dog to be present. This will avoid any miscommunication between partners. There may or may not be other families apart of the session as well—vaccinations are required for everyone's health and safety. Poop bags, leashes, and any tools we determine necessary are required every session. Between each session, I expect parents to follow through with training at home at least once a day for 30 minutes. I'm also available to answer questions in between sessions so you can feel confident in your teachings!
More info
I have a positive reinforcement methodology. Rewarding immediately when they perform cues. I believe in giving them the choice to perform and rewarding when they do. This builds trust and communication between dog and human!

Availability
I currently pet sit and walk dogs full time. My schedule is very open currently. During the summer, I try to keep outdoor training sessions in the early morning or later evening to keep everyone comfortable.
