  Training Philosophy
  - I am focused on improving the connection between dogs and their owners through positive reinforcement training.

  - My methods include the use of rewards (food, treats, toys, praise, and real-life rewards) to motivate dogs to obey commands readily and happily.
  -I encourage training that is humane and minimally aversive.
  -I coach owners to be effective, strong leaders and responsible dog owners in their communities.
