Foundations that Transform

Not only do I have 20 years of Professional experience in the pet and animal care industries, but I have had a lifelong journey with every type of creature you can imagine. This has allowed me to receive first hand, real world experience on how animals operate. Their body language, their psychology, their communication styles, and truly comprehending the mind of an animal is my number 1 specialty. This is what has allowed me to create successful experiences for owners and their furry companions.

What to expect

Consultation

Consultations will all vary by owner & dog's needs and schedule. However ideally it would be best to observe the dog initially in its home environment. That way I can have a clear view, and understanding of the layout, how owners/human handlers and the canine learner operate in the home environment, goals that the owners are looking to meet, any challenges or obstacles currently experienced, as well as an overview of the tools owners are using with their dog. From there, I can begin to recommend amount of sessions initially needed, and a good training routine to establish.

Sessions

Typically in your home

🐾 What to Expect in Your First Training Session Your first 60–75 minute session lays the foundation for your dog’s training journey. We’ll start with a brief conversation about your dog’s history and your goals, followed by a temperament and learning assessment. Then we begin hands-on work such as name recognition, focus, markers, leash manners, “leave it,” and “place.” You’ll receive clear guidance and simple homework to support progress between sessions.

Positive Reinforcement

Building a foundation, and establishing trust. These are my key foundations to starting a training journey, with a canine learner. Each dog, each breed is completely different. Training is not a one size fits all program. However creating the building blocks of a foundation (before building up to the roof), is key to branching out into the dog's specialized needs, and goals.
