About

I currently offer personal dog training utilizing positive reinforcement techniques. It is my belief that training one’s dog is essential to the happiness and well-being of both dog and owner, setting the stage for a mutually positive relationship. When I meet with clients I focus on assessing the unwanted behaviors and troubleshoot using the least aversive techniques. I teach owners basic dog behavior to help them understand their dog’s actions and needs. Owners can expect to learn and practice positive reinforcement and negative punishment techniques.
