Train With Me

Methods

I struggle with calling myself a “dog trainer” because dogs are really good at being dogs! It’s us who need to learn their language to understand what they are telling us, how they are feeling, and teach them skills so we can live more cohesively together.

I use science-based methods/positive reinforcement/force free/ whatever you prefer to call it. The dog’s happiness and comfort is my priority. I do not use fear, intimidation, or pain. I will never use a shock collar, prong collar, or choke chain.

Training is a lifestyle as dogs are always learning. Training with the dog’s comfort in mind is not permissive, it doesn’t mean the dog can do whatever they want. We prevent, manage, and reinforce. My goal to have your dog listen to you because they want to, as you have a relationship built on mutual respect, trust, and fun.
