Puppy Foundations: Start Them Right
Bringing a new puppy home is exciting, but it comes with challenges. This section covers the essential first steps, from managing puppy biting and starting toilet training to crucial socialization techniques that help your pup grow into a confident, well-behaved adult.
Solving Problem Behaviors
I can help you address challenging issues like leash reactivity, separation anxiety, and resource guarding. My approach is rooted in understanding the 'why' behind the behavior and using force-free methods to build your dog's confidence and change their emotional response.
Essential Commands & Skills
This is where we build the foundation for a well-mannered companion. I focus on teaching practical, real-world skills like a reliable recall, a solid stay, and polite leash walking, always tailoring the training to fit your dog's breed and your lifestyle.
Play as a Path to Connection
I believe play is one of the most powerful tools for training and building a strong relationship. I use structured games like tug and fetch to teach vital skills like impulse control and focus, ensuring your dog learns to obsess over playing with you, not just the toy.
My Philosophy: Beyond Obedience
My goal is to foster a deep, unspoken bond between you and your dog, built on respect for their needs as a species. This collection explains my core principles, from understanding canine body language and the importance of consent to creating structure and advocating for their emotional well-being.

Nothing makes me happier than seeing my clients and their dogs thrive together. This gallery showcases the progress of dogs I've worked with, from board-and-train puppies to group sessions focused on building real-world skills and creating a supportive community of pet parents.
