Introduction: I look at the whole relationship between the family and the animal and start by building a foundation of understanding between them before trying to modify a specific problem behavior. Once there is a solid foundation of obedience and trust, I help the owners teach the dog different coping skills so that they can be successful in difficult situations. I help both the dog and owner learn what they should be doing rather than what they are doing wrong. This builds confidence and leads to success.
The joy I feel when one of my clients reaches their goals. I save every email and card saying "Thank you".
