Rylee Rose has a passion for working with dogs that stems from a lifetime of owning dogs and over a decade spent in various industries working with dogs. Her professional journey began during her teenage years when she volunteered at animal shelters and worked in boarding kennels. Through these experiences, she developed skills in handling dogs of various sizes and temperaments. She spent a couple of years assisting in canine rehabilitation, where she gained valuable insights into the vital connection between physical health and a dog’s behavior. This culmination of experiences fueled her passion for training dogs, where she began by mentoring under a top competitor in competition obedience. She continually expands her expertise by taking courses and reading books published by well-accomplished trainers to stay at the forefront of canine behavior and training techniques.
Training Philosophy
Rylee Rose’s training philosophy is rooted in positive reinforcement and providing dogs with appropriate outlets for their energy and instincts. She follows LIMA (least intrusive, minimally aversive) guidelines throughout all training, meaning the dog learns primarily through positive reinforcement. She emphasizes the need to look at the entire picture of the dog she’s working with – previous learning, their environment, their genetics, and their internal self to figure out WHY the problem behaviors are occurring. She believes in building a trusting and cooperative relationship between dogs and their owners, focusing on positive reinforcement and clear communication. By respecting the individual needs and emotions of each dog, she aims to create a supportive environment where learning and growth can naturally occur.
