- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I start with a quick phone consultation to learn about your dog, your concerns, and what you want life with your dog to look like. From there, I recommend the best training option and create a plan based on your dog and household. Training focuses on clear communication, practical skills, and real-life situations. I also provide homework and follow-up support so you feel confident continuing the training at home.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I’ve trained under four mentors across different disciplines, including pet dog training, behavior modification, working dogs, and protection/detection work. My education has been very hands-on, working with dogs of different breeds, temperaments, and behavioral challenges. I continue to expand my knowledge through real-world training, mentorship, and ongoing education in canine behavior and animal care.
