Coach For Canines

Specialties

I love to compete in tracking, obedience and herding with my own dogs, but really enjoy helping people with problems with their pets, and teaching them how to get control and enjoy them as family companions. I also enjoy introducing new people to the sport of dog obedience competition.

Companion obedience, aggression problems and control problems are my specialty. Come see how thoughtful application of solid principles without conflict and fighting work to «heal» your relaitionship with your dog so he can «heel» with you.
