2024- Another Great Year!
2023- The First Year!
First client ever! Miss Delphie! This 1yr old Chihuahua Shepherd mix will be learning a bit more about staying calm when new human friends are nearby. I met this girl and her dedicated dads while teaching at Petco, and they were excited to keep working with me for private in-home sessions. Excited to see what else this girl is capable of!

Miss Oona was a ray of sunshine for her first coaching session! I have known this girl since she was a 3-month-old puppy in my Petco classes. As she got older, Oona became quite uncomfortable with strangers in her home and around her neighborhood. We'll be working on helping her feel safe on walks, and setting clear and predictable expectations when someone is at the door. Can't wait to get started!
