“ The dog is always right. ”

Raising a happy dog begins with meeting their basic needs.

Behavior is the communication of a need…

“ I rely on the study of canine body-language, understanding the Antecedent that triggers a Behavior and finding the Consequence that either reinforces or punishes that communication. A guiding principle for this is the notion that “the dog is always right;” this means that the dog decides what is delicious, what is fun or what is unpleasant.

…and every dog is a study of 1. “

I want to inspire you with simple habits that build clear communication

  • You will feel a sense of relief and empowerment as you and your dog become more engaged & learn how to implement positive solutions to unwanted behaviors.

  • We will harness your dog’s innate desires in order to build more satisfying play, mental enrichment, and meals that will burn off energy through healthy activities.

  • No one knows your dog better than you - I will harness that knowledge with my expertise to set your dog up for success.
