FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I start with a free phone consultation to make sure that we are a good match. Once we decide to work together, I will send the client some paperwork to fill out, detailing the services we've agreed upon. Then we will book an appointment either online or in person, depending on COVID and personal preferences and start training your dog!

- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Note: I am a Dog Trainer, Animal Reiki Practitioner & Animal Communication Specialist! My journey started with Animal Reiki... Over the past 20 years, many dog owners have reached out to me because their dog had a “behavior” problem that needed to change ASAP. They firmly believed that one Reiki and Animal Communication session would “fix” the problem and their dog would miraculously transform into an obedient angel. They would ask me to “tell my dog that ___(insert behavior issue(s)) need to stop immediately!” My clients assumed that their dog was simply going to A) understand and accept their demands B) act like a reasonable person and choose to behave differently. This NEVER worked. DOGS ARE NOT PEOPLE, they do not think, reason or act like we do. DOGS NEED TO BE SHOWN WHAT IS EXPECTED OF THEM SO THAT THEY CAN RELAX AND MAKE THE RIGHT BEHAVIOR CHOICES. Over the years, my Reiki and Communication session have turned into Training Sessions. We start at the beginning, unearthing any underlying issues along the way and work together to develop a plan of action to create an at-home environment that sets everyone up for success. Then we work on training basic "commands." Most people see changes IMMEDIATLY! Some call it a miracle. I call it Dog-Communication! This program is for puppies as well!
