Did Hank get scared and bite someone when they tried to pet him?
You've come to the right place, I can help!
What if I told you your dog isn't broken, naughty, or stubborn?

With over 10 years of dog training and behavior experience and a lot of schooling under my belt, I am well-equipped to help you and your dog live a better, less frustrating life together.
I've been there
I've been the person who had a 115 lb Great Dane on a training collar who was STILL pulling me down the street. I've been the person whose dog does not like strangers and growls and barks at anyone who tried to touch her, despite doing "everything right" raising her. Not only that, but I've fostered the dog who attacked a puppy over a watermelon rind. I've been the person standing on the beach screaming for a dog as they run further and further away from me. You're not alone. In fact, millions of folks struggle with their dog's behavioral challenges to a varying degree. I can help!
What types of things will my dog learn?
You and your dog will learn how to communicate with one another. Once you know how to do that, the sky is the limit! We can teach basic skills like "Sit", "Down", "Stay", and "Come." As well as be able to help them feel more comfortable and relaxed around things that excite or scare them.
Where does the training happen?
Happy Dog Institute in Tumwater, WA
Who does the training?
I coach you to train your dog. The benefit of this is your dog will learn to listen to and trust you as their handler. This makes training much more clear to the dog, since they only need to learn you and your families handling style and not mine as well. It also helps develop a strong, lasting bond with your canine companion.
