The Service Dog Team Academy - Dog Trainers - Rockwall, TX
As a dedicated and passionate dog trainer serving the DFW area, I bring over 25 years of experience in training service dogs for various tasks to your doorstep. A graduate of the prestigious Karen Pryor Academy, I am also certified as an Animal Behavior College Dog Trainer Level 2 and am proud to hold the distinction of being an AKC Canine Good Citizen Approved Evaluator. My expertise extends as a mentor trainer for CATCH Trainers Academy, Animal Behavior College, and Victoria Stilwell Academy, ensuring that I stay at the forefront of the latest training techniques and methodologies. I believe in the power of positive reinforcement, utilizing tools and rewards such as clickers, treats, and toys to help your furry friend thrive in a home environment.
In my board and train program, your pet gets to learn in a comfortable home setting, which mirrors their natural living environment, ensuring a smoother transition of learned behaviors. I specialize in a wide range of training areas including detection dog training, dog agility training, obedience, therapy training, and pet behavior modification. Whether your dog needs basic obedience skills or advanced service dog training, my personalized approach is designed to meet the unique needs of each pet. I cater exclusively to dogs and offer mobile services to make training as convenient as possible for you and your pet within my service area.
With my extensive credentials, such as being a Victoria Stilwell Positive Dog Trainer and a CATCH Canine Training Academy Certified Dog Trainer, I am committed to helping your dog become the best version of themselves.
