About Me
I have always dreamt of someday becoming a vet. I worked at a vet clinic for 2 years, where I worked with many different breeds, ages, and dogs of varying personalities. I have owned my Yorkie, Miley, for 12 years now, and have owned a German Shepherd, a Maltese, and a Chihuahua in the past. I have been researching dogs and the dog breeds I own for as long as I can remember- they truly are my passion.
About the Training
We offer private (one-on-one), in-home dog training. We can work on anything from basic obedience/manners for pets to advanced work in agility, Schutzhund/IPO, etc. We do use a mix of positive and negative reinforcement, depending on the dog. For example, all dogs will be praised and rewarded for good behavior, but a shy older Yorkie may be told "No" firmly for incorrect behavior, while a rambunctious young adult German Shepherd who refuses to listen may need a prong collar. We never condone any sort of physical abuse, but some tools such as prong collars and electric collars can sometimes prove useful in training more stubborn dogs that need the reinforcement. All of our training begins with all positive reinforcement; corrections come later on in more advanced work. We never correct puppies except for inappropriate behaviors such as jumping, chewing, play biting, etc. We are located in and serve the North Dallas area.
