With credentials like being an American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen Approved Evaluator (AKC CGC) and an Animal Behavior College Certified Dog Trainer (ABCDT), I am highly recommended by local veterinarians who trust my methods. My comprehensive training services focus on natural canine communication, ensuring no punishment or treats are involved, and you will see immediate, same-day results that both you and your dog will love.
I specialize in reversing aggression, alleviating separation anxiety, and addressing a wide range of behavioral challenges such as pulling, lunging, barking, and sibling rivalry. My qualifications, including certification as a Certified Behavior Consultant Canine-Knowledge Assessed (CBCC-KA) and Certified Canine Rehabilitation Therapist (CCRT), empower me to transform your dog's behavior from their perspective. Whether you're dealing with housebreaking, marking, or need help teaching your puppy or adult dog commands and obedience, my insured services are designed to achieve lasting and positive outcomes.
In addition to offering mobile services, I can accommodate clients with a cancellation policy requiring 24 hours' notice. My training approach is enriched by memberships with esteemed organizations like the Association of Animal Behavior Professionals (AABP) and the National Association of Dog Obedience Instructors (NADOI).
