As a balanced trainer, I use proven, effective methods tailored to each dog’s individual needs, ensuring a well-rounded approach to obedience, behavior modification, and advanced training.
I have completed the NePoPo® New Silver School, a prestigious program that refines modern training techniques for optimal performance and reliability. Additionally, I’ve attended multiple workshops with some of the most respected trainers in the industry, continuously expanding my knowledge and skill set to provide the highest level of training available.

I have also been a member of the international association of canine professionals (IACP) since 2019 and I am a certified AKC canine good citizen (CGC) evaluator, this allows me to assess and certify well mannered dogs for the AKC’s respected CGC programs.
