About

I am a CPDT-KA and have been working professionally with dogs and their owners since 2008. With extensive experience in reward-based, genuinely dog-friendly training, I'm happy to help you with getting your puppy or dog off to a great start. I can also assist you with more complex behavior issues : being polite and mannerly in your home, walking nicely on leash, "stranger danger" and dog/dog issues. I welcome questions :

Private lessons * Group Classes * Behavior Issues

Private Lessons can be conducted via Zoom or in person. They allow me to work with you and your dog at your own pace, addressing your immediate concerns and offering practical ways to show your dog the rules of your home. I'll follow up our session with an email of personalized suggestions!

Group Classes are held at Port Chester Obedience Training Club in White Plains, NY. and will restart in July 2020. Learn how to teach your dog in a friendly, comfortable group class setting. Group classes are especially useful for dog who like to jump up to greet people and need to work on manners around strangers and other dogs.

Behavior issues such as dog aggression, biting, barking, territoriality, and the kinds of things that might make you say, "This dog is just not trainable!" I'd love to show you how to help your "dog gone wrong" using kind, proven, science-based methods. The first step forward is to get in touch with me.
