Sara has been training dogs for over 25 years in a variety of settings. It began with dozens of foster dogs in the early 90’s and most recently included several years as the trainer-on-staff at the local shelter. She has lived with over 50 dogs between her own and fosters; many of these dogs came to her with serious behavior issues. This gives her a unique perspective: first-hand experience that allows her to truly empathize with clients and the knowledge to help them improve their dog’s behavior.
Training Philosophy
Sara takes a relationship-based approach:
her objective is to work with you and your dog as a team, teaching you how to train and communicate with your dog so you have the skills for continued success after you work together.
