Unleashing Canine Greatness - Private Dog Training - Nationwide
Since 2009, I’ve been helping dogs and their people find more ease, understanding and harmony at home. As one of only two Certified Dog Behavior Consultants in Arizona, I specialize in science-based support for reactivity, aggression, anxiety, rescue transitions and multi-dog challenges. My approach is calm, compassionate and tailored to each family, with a focus on helping both dog and human feel seen, supported and capable.
I’ve worked with dogs from all backgrounds, recent rescues, sensitive dogs, complex behavior cases, and long-loved companions who simply need clearer guidance. I believe every family deserves thoughtful, humane help and practical solutions that make daily life better.
Alongside my behavior practice, I serve as the Credentialing Director for the IAABC and the author of Finding Mikey: A 10-Step Guide to Finding Your Compatible Canine, a resource designed to help future dog owners choose wisely and build strong, lasting bonds from the start.
I offer in-person sessions throughout the White Mountains and virtual consulting for clients anywhere in the world. Many families find remote work surprisingly effective, especially for issues rooted in the home environment.
If you’re looking for warm, professional guidance and lasting change, I’d be honored to support you and your dog.
