FAQs

What are your training methods?

Life is all about checks and balances, rewards and consequences. We use this system to teach our children how to navigate life successfully; I use this balanced approach to help you teach your dog the same way of being.

What are your qualifications?

My customers, with their happy dogs, are my qualifications. I believe that proof is in the pudding, and that’s exactly what I bring to my clients. I provide them with actual, visible proof that their dog can be helped, and in the process, I help them make the changes they need to make in order to continue strengthening their relationship with their dog.

Am I allowed to visit my dog while he or she is in one of your board-and-train programs?

Absolutely! I’m a firm believer in being completely transparent with you. I would never board my dog with someone I hardly know without first seeing where they’ll be sleeping and how they’ll be living – regardless of how good I might feel about them. I don’t expect you to do anything different just because you like me. So, yes, please do come to my home! Visit and work with your dog as often as you can – in fact, I encourage you to do this so you can start learning sooner how to handle your pup. You’ll meet my husband and our silly cat, Violet, you’ll get to visit with Glimmer [you will have met her prior to your dog coming to me], you’ll find a calm, relaxed, open, friendly atmosphere, and you can see for yourself how your dog is progressing.

If you have any other questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I’m here for you.
