Trainer's Statement

With my background as a guide dog trainer I have extensive experience developing public access skills. Having transitioned to coaching owner trainers, I have worked with clients training for psychiatric, mobility and hearing tasks. I approach each client and dog as individuals, supporting them in forming a team and meeting their personal goals.

Along with coaching clients in self training service dogs I provide coaching for pet owners who are raising puppies, teaching basic manners or solving behavior problems. I also provide home school services, where I provide training for the dog while it lives at home. This training is accompanied by coaching to help the humans learn how to maintain and build on the dog’s new skills.

I love helping dogs and people learn how to understand each other, work together as a team and have fun together!
