PHILOSOPHY

You don’t need me to be your dog's dog trainer.

You need me to be your guide to help you best communicate with your dog so they can live a long and healthy life. 

 

I’ve recently found myself overwhelmed with frustration about how I’m perceived in this industry. I kept thinking my title has nothing to do with how I interact with clients. I call myself a dog trainer but really that is not what I am at all. I am a personal coach for you, the human reading this right now. I am an educator on all things dog. How I approach clients and their canines is holistic in nature, spiritual and radically individualized to best accommodate the specific human and dog relationship in front of me. I feel first when I walk in a room. I take in the energy that surrounds me and let it guide me to best formulate a plan that is hopeful and realistic. I think when a lot of people picture “dog trainer” they envision combat boots, military style pants with the person scowling as they tell the human who hired them “HEY. I’M THE BOSS.” 

 

In order to create an environment where all creatures can learn, absorb and repeat there needs to be a level of openness, flexibility and fun. 

 

If you’re someone who is looking for a deeper understanding of what is ruminating in your dog's mind and body, I can certainly be your guide.
