I got hooked on dog training while I was attending dog school with my adopted cattle dog mix in 2008. While I attended Jean Donaldson’s Academy for Dog Trainers (graduated with honors in 2017), I began training dogs in their homes professionally in 2013. I use train using only evidence-based, positive reward-based methods. I use positive methods because they work, they have no down side, and they promote happy, healthy, close relationships between people and their 4-legged family members.
