Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Things can be “ruff” in the beginning when it comes to bringing in a new family member. My goal is to teach you how to speak dog, change and or manage behaviors, and build a strong structured foundation for your relationship. It is so rewarding to see peoples lives changed when they go through training for their dog.

Dasha is a highly skilled, knowledgeable dog trainer who is passionate about the well-being of her clients’ dogs. I recommend Dasha and her organization to anyone who wants to improve their relationship with their dog.
My wife and I adopted our standard poodle, Pumpkin, as a young puppy. She was incredibly energetic, making our life very hectic.
Dasha helped us learn how to incorporate Pumpkin into our lives. Through 1:1 visits and group classes, Dasha helped us improve how we communicate with Pumpkin.
Recently, Dasha worked with Pumpkin for multiple weeks during her board and train program. Pumpkin clearly learned a lot because her behavior has significantly improved.
We are excited to continue working with Dasha!

Dasha is a life saver! These 2 dogs were so crazy and out of control puppies. Aurora our pitty absolutely loves Dasha and has learned so much. She taught her all her tricks and obedience and now is a fine upstanding pup on her way to CGC certification. And Maximus our Golden (who Dasha helped us get) is a big ball of energy that without Dashas training would have ran me crazy. The quality of training and time she takes to answer ANY question with examples is absolutely above what we could ask for in a trainer! Also she’s so patient cause these two are a lot to handle and me as a dog dad can be a lot too. Dasha corrects not only dog behavior but parent behavior. Helped me see I was encouraging bad habit and got us headed in the right direction. 10/10 would and have recommend!

Dasha trained my 7 month old golden retriever. The best way to explain my dog before his training is rude and bratty. He would bark for attention, playful bite, jump up, and wouldn’t come when called. After a board and train with Dasha, he came back wonderful! I can now trust him to be off leash and come when called. He is also a champ at “wait” (or “stay”) and “leave it”. And his rude behaviors are gone.
Dasha was super kind and easy to work with too. She was so responsive and great about sending pictures/updates. And she was great at listening to our main concerns and training accordingly. Plus she just loved our pup and I trusted he was in good hands. She spoiled him big time and treated him like her own dog. This was important to me so I knew my dog wasn’t just cooped up in a kennel for weeks when it wasn’t time for an active lesson. Rather, Dasha was always training him in a home environment.
