My philosophy is simple, science and reward based training. I want to teach dogs what we want them to do not what we don't want them to do. Through training behavioral cues, tricks, potty/crate training positively, I can help grow that strong bond. I use only force free techniques in training.

Why positive reinforcement training

As a Certified Veterinary Technician and Victoria Stilwell Certified Dog Trainer, I bring an extensive knowledge base to training. With my focus on positive reinforcement, I only use reward based training techniques to teach dogs manners and the skills they need to be upscale members of society. More importantly, I teach them that learning is fun helping them to want to be well-behaved and to want to make good choices, ultimately ensuring them as a forever member of your family.

 My go to motto is reward for what you ask for and ignore and re-direct what you don’t want.
