A Holistic Philosophy

My holistic approach nourishes every dog’s body, mind, and soul.

How do I train?

Every dog is different, and I embrace this diversity. I use tools according to what works best for each dog, considering their temperaments, breeds, and individual wiring. I look at the dog as a whole, complex being—addressing nutrition, home environment, past experiences, breed, etc. so that I can work with a full picture. I also understand that every dog is wired to play, explore, and bond with their owner, and anything hindering them from living fulfilled must be addressed. As your trainer, I will work to get you and your dog back on the same team, being your coach and advocate every step of the way.
