About Me

My passion for dogs began 29 years ago as a teenager job shadowing at the SPCA (now EHS). Edmontonians may remember the dingy, dark and slightly spooky old shelter on the Yellowhead. After deciding vet medicine was not for me, I quickly changed course. Realizing behavioural issues were the main reason for animal surrender I started learning how to train dogs. I had a wonderful mentor that guided me through training my very first dog, and although I do things very different now, the objective is still the same. With years of experience and hands on hundreds of pets in 2021 alone, I have been fortunate to work with a vast variety of breeds and behaviours. Transitioning into the pet training industry has been more rewarding than I could have ever hoped. With a CPDT-KA, DBTMc, Certified Master course – Aggression in Dogs, as well as multiple self study courses with top professionals in the industry, I have remained on top of the latest training methods and I am passionate about sharing that knowledge to improve the lives of families and their pets. Giving handlers the skills to connect with their pets and giving the dogs the confidence to navigate our crazy world has been a dream come true.
