We take pride in our ability to solve any behavioral problem, and in our ability to teach effective obedience through the use of positive reinforcement training methods, without the use of shock/pinch collars or other harsh training methods. Our philosophy regarding training demands that owners be given the knowledge to build and maintain leadership as well

Profile: Ever since I was a small child I have had a passion and curiosity about animals. I always wanted to know why they do what they do, I wanted to understand their way of thinking, so I could communicate with them. It was a natural transition for me to choose a career training dogs. After reading about The Animal Behavior College being a state accredited college, I knew it was the right place for me. I really enjoy helping other dog lovers figure out how to solve the problems with their own dogs. I'm so excited about being a Certified Dog Trainer Instructor.
