About

"Act Like A Human...Think Like A Dog"

I am not a dog trainer. My focus is behavior rehabilitation and relationship coaching. My goal is to educate dog owners on the social hardwiring of their dog and Canines in general, as this is where behavioral issues must be addressed.

The only training and educating I do is for the owners and anyone involved with the dog in question's life.

My focus is on the relationship dynamic that has already been established between the dog and their owner, and how to change that dynamic through the type of interactions that are taking place between the dog and the people involved.

Most behavioral problems are the result of imbalanced relationship dynamics, lack of rules, boundaries, and structure, and ineffective communication which leads to a lack of trust, respect, and control.

I do not use tools such as shock collars, clickers, prong collars, and while I do bring food to my sessions, I hardly use it unless it is warranted.

My guidance requires that you understand that us as the human beings responsible for our dogs are the greatest tool necessary to achieve change in the relationships we build with our dogs. Everything comes down to control, power, and respect. Trust naturally comes with these principles.

What is lost in mainstream "training" is the understanding of how dogs operate, and how to communicate with them in an effective way, which comes down to influence, and how we interact with dogs.

I aim to empower you with the knowledge of how behavioral problems develop, and how you play a crucial role in reversing them.

With the right approach, you will be shocked how quickly your dog can change.
