The Learning Canine

Introduction: I am completely committed to training and helping people as well as dogs. I left a career in the administrative world to make my life's passion, my life's work. I follow up with my customers, keep in touch with them and add them to a group email list (which is kept confidential) in which I sent out info on dog training articles (my own and my colleagues), behavior, local dog friendly events and any other information I feel my clients may need to know or benefit from. It is my passion to save dogs' lives, and if I don't do my job well, I feel that I am failing the dog as well as his/her owners. The rewards of seeing a dog make progress in Obedience, Behavior Modification or whatever the case may be are like no other. There is nothing like seeing the ear to ear smile on a pet parents face when they see their dog learning and offering desired behavior. Also, to know that I helped a dog find or stay in his/her furever home because I helped teach basic manners is the best reward in the world. Teaching people and dogs how to communicate and build positive relationships can be challenging, but nothing is more rewarding.
