Certified Dog Trainer and Behavior Consultant, Certified (licensed) Family Paws Parent Educator and member of the Alberta Force Free Alliance proudly serving Central Alberta and area!

TRAINING | CARE | BEHAVIOR


My goal is to provide the very best in training, care and behavior assistance. Since my passion and standards are high, I am constantly improving my education and have connections with other trainers who are among the best in the business. My goal is to help you achieve friendship and understanding between you and your dog. I want you, my valued client, to be happy. 

I follow the laws of learning theory and am highly motivated by the science behind it. This means that I look to the root cause of the behavior, not the symptom. It's imperative that we understand how our dogs learn - if we don't know how they learn, how can we teach them?
