CCPDT Certified - Peaceable Paws Dog Training - Fairplay, MD
As a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA) and a Certified Behavior Consultant Canine-Knowledge Assessed (CBCC-KA), I take immense pride in offering private behavior consultations tailored to address a wide range of issues, including aggression and anxiety. With over four years of experience in the field, my focus is on fostering strong, trusting relationships between pets and their parents through humane, force-free methods. I serve dogs of all sizes, from under 20 lbs to over 80 lbs, ensuring that every pet receives individualized attention and care.
In addition to behavior consultations, I am thrilled to provide both private and group training classes designed to meet your pet's unique needs. I also offer hands-on academies and apprenticeships for aspiring dog trainers who wish to deepen their knowledge and skills. My commitment to professional development is backed by my membership in the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT) and the Pet Professional Guild (PPG), which keeps me updated on the latest methods and trends in the pet training industry. Plus, I’m fully insured, giving you peace of mind as we embark on this journey together.
Whether you prefer in-person sessions or want to explore online training options, I'm here to help you and your furry friend thrive. My goal is to empower you with the tools and techniques necessary for a harmonious life with your pet. Ready to get started? Book through Petworks today!
