I know how difficult it can be to own a "problem" dog. Dog walks can be a challenging chore that leaves you constantly scanning the horizon for distractions, ready to change direction immediately! I have experienced this with our rescue Border Collie that reacted to other dogs and traffic and with my 'I want to be friends with everyone' Labrador puppy. As a Vet Nurse I saw many dogs struggle with the stress of a Vet and groomer visit, and being left home alone. The worry can really take its toll on everyone.

If this sounds familiar, then you are in the right place. I can help you enjoy life with your dog using ethical and effective methods.​
"Obama was extremely reactive to dogs. After working on building his confidence he greets and plays with dogs with no problems and I can easily call him away from dogs he seems wary of.
It's honestly like having a new dog."
