Certified Dog Trainers in Evergreen, Colorado

Gina DeStaffany is a Certified Dog Behavior Consultant (CDBC) through the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC), a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA) through the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers (CPDT) and a Fear Free Certified Trainer (FFCT). Gina’s goal is to provide you with the knowledge and skills to build a wonderful relationship between you and your dog through understanding, compassion, and guidance! This includes coaching the humans to better understand the “why” behind our dog’s behaviors; providing behavior modification plans rooted in the science of how dogs learn and behave; and modeling and training with your dog in humane, compassionate ways. Gina does not believe using pain, fear, or force in training is ever necessary or ethical, no matter the breed, age, or behavior needs. After supporting Austin’s people and pups for years, Gina recently made the move to Colorado and started The Joyful Dog Co., bringing access to one of the few highly certified, positive reinforcement dog trainers to the Denver area. Gina’s work will also forever be inspired by her two late adopted pups Gemma and Deli. Both pups helped Gina move away from the outdated idea of “obedience”. They taught Gina the importance of meeting both their physical and mental needs, and ensuring they were not only physically safe, but truly felt safe to learn, grow, and let their personalities shine. Both pups were true joy specialists - living life in the moment and to the fullest - something Gina hopes to share and instill in those she works with! Serving the greater Denver, CO area + virtual.
