My Approach

I specialize in helping dogs and their families develop calm, confident, and cooperative behaviors using principles such as positive reinforcement, shaping and prompting to build new skills, environmental management to prevent unwanted behaviors, and clear, consistent communication to help dogs succeed. The use of “the educator” is required for some sessions.

My Promise

We’ll start by assessing your dog’s environment, triggers, and routines. You’ll learn how to use reinforcement and consequences effectively and set your dog up for success. I’ll demonstrate handling skills and practice sessions with you, step-by-step. My goal is to help your dog feel safe, understood, and motivated, not fearful or confused.
