I started working at a major pet store chain in 2000.  It was a great start and really discovered that training was my passion.  Over the years my career changed and obedience training was something I did on the side.  Obedience training means just that, the basic commands, sit, stay, down, etc… Then I found myself owning a deaf pit with resource guarding and leash reactivity… None of the skills I had in my “obedience” toolbox were going to help me with this dog.  So I did what I had to and sought out help from the best.  I reached out to the best trainers that I knew, and then started studying with some of the best trainers in the country. I learned how to help dog with behavior modification.  And then I quickly realized that these behavior modification skills were so much more of what my clients needed.
