How I became a trainer
Some years ago I was sharing an apartment with a roommate who adopted a Bull Terrier puppy named Astor. She knew nothing about raising a young dog and, as you can image, Astor had all the typical puppy behaviors. He was not house trained, he chewed anything he could get his mouth on and he had every bad behavior a young (or untrained) dog can have: pulling on the leash, jumping, barking, begging for food, counter surfing, mouthing and nipping.
I grew up with dogs (a Belgian Shepard, a Dalmatian, and a hound mix) and knew that Astor just needed some guidance to be a wonderful pet. Like many first time owners my roommate lacked the knowledge to help Astor and was mistakenly hoping maturity would magically "fix" him. Since he was not getting any training from my roommate and the situation needed to be addressed, I started to train Astor. Helping Astor was a natural instinct for someone who grew up with dogs and understood their potential. Becoming a trainer was not part of my carrier plan at that time but sometimes your passion finds you.
No matter the breed, the age, or the sex all dogs simply need some clear guidance to become cherished members of a family.

About Us
Our Pack
Dogs have been an integral part of my life since childhood. Learning to understand how they experience the world is critical to being a good pack leader and having a balanced dog. Fang (Siberian Husky), Honey (American
Staffordshire), Brix (Dogue the Bordeaux) and Sweetie (cat) are all rescue animals.
Working with dogs is my passion. Size, age, breed and shape does not matter.
Real World Training Environment
We train dogs in a real world environment that replicates the family, not some secluded industrial building. They learn good canine citizenship by living in a home environment, walking on the sidewalk and riding in cars daily as well as visiting parks, canine friendly stores and restaurants (weather permitting).
No problem is too BIG or too small
Dogs that are termed aggressive, reactive, pushy, mouthy, etc. often have those behaviors unintentionally reinforced by well intentioned owners trying to manage the problem. Through understanding the root cause of issues, we use the dog's natural instinct and framework for learning to modify or extinguish unwanted behaviors.
