Tired of tug-of-war walks, overwhelmed guests, or puppy teeth marks up your arms? Or has your routine gotten stale, leaving you and your dog bored and looking for new adventures?

​​I’m here to help with...

  • practical support

  • personalized training and

  • compassionate coaching that turns chaos into calm and brings joy back to your time together.

Imagine...

  • Peaceful strolls

  • A puppy who settles down and chews what you choose

  • Guests greeted calmly with wags instead of chaos

  • Fun games and new skills that keep learning fresh and exciting

My private lessons and group classes will keep you both learning, growing, and enjoying life side by side. Let’s shift from overwhelmed to empowered, from discouraged to inspired —together.
