About

I am a certified Dog Trainer and Behaviorist with over 2 decades of experience helping dogs and owners of all ages, skill levels, and behavioral needs. I custom my approach based on your dog as an individual, household dynamics, and lifestyle. I place great value on coaching owners to improve handling on the human end of the leash! Dogs are taught skills in multiple steps and layers using fun, reward-based methods backed by science! No "one size fits all" or cookie cutter approach, no slapping a shock collar on every dog that comes in, and no sales gimmicks here! We're here to help improve your communication using a fun and easy approach for long term success!

I’ve had the privilege of working with K9ology for over 5 years. What I like most about them is their dedication and commitment to helping rescue mutts as much as helping well bred dogs. They base their work off of what each dog truly needs to thrive and can easily accommodate multiple training strategies for multiple dogs in a class. This is definitely not a one size fits all training program. Being a foster I have probably worked over 50 different dogs with them over the years. Each time I learned valuable insight and walked away with tools to help properly place the dog into an ideal home.

K9ology is a wonderful place to have your dog trained. Their love and devotion to animals is incredible. They also offer pet boarding, which our dog loved!
