Introduction: I am Seattle based (Snohomish County), certified (CPDT-KA), experienced and knowledgeable professional dog trainer. I am recognized in the industry as a trainer with proven track record of success and many happy returning clients.

Alana was extremely professional and helped us and our mini schnauzer overcome some of his fear and anxiety issues. She provided us with techniques to use every day Walks are now a joy and we don't worry about him charging on the leash or barking at other dogs on walks.

Alana was fantastic. She met with us all at our home. She got to know us and our dogs. Then she spent personal time going over any concerns. Showed us the best way to train each of our dogs. It was a fabulous experience. We recommend her to anyone who is looking to train their dogs.

Alana gave me confidence that my dog wasn't hopeless. After many obedience classes and some training, Reuben (Aussie) could do any trick you want but his excited/anxious emotion would be too much to bear. Alana gave me tools to help Reuben be more calm in stressful situations and has given me an abundance of information following our consultation. Training takes time but seeing Alana just once I can start to see what Im doing right and wrong. Hoping to see Alana in the future for more work with Reuben! Ps. Alana has experience with Aussies which helped a lot.

    I attend seminars from leaders in the field regularly. These often include seminars from behaviorists on a range of topics including handling aggression, cognitive learning and advancements in theoretical technique in training.
