Niki is literally hands down the best help we have ever had for our 3 dogs! Not only is she amazing at coming over, walking the dogs and spending time with them, but she is an amazing trainer too. Our American Bully was quite the handful and within a short few visits with Niki he has learned basic commands and how to be attentive to what we are saying. Super excited for our dogs to spend more time with her and she is a life saver for when we are out of town! Thank you Niki for what you do and for taking care of our precious babies when we aren’t around to do so!
Because I am a licensed veterinary technician, Level 2 Fear Free Certified, member of The Pet Professional Guild, Reiki Level 1 Practitioner, and Pet Nutrition Consultant, I will help you piece together the WHOLE beautiful picture behind your pet's behavior: Proper Nutrition, Exercise relative to Growth Stages and maintenance, to Physiological Capabilities (and restrictions), and overall Emotional Health as well. A well-adjusted dog is NOT just about "training" and I will help you learn and use techniques which incorporate helping the dog Learn to Earn rewards (food, treats, toys, freedoms, praise, snuggles, etc) - everything you likely already give them for free, but all the while building their confidence and understanding of our very human world, much different from their own, all the while learning new skills and manners that will last a Lifetime without you purchasing aversive equipment or collars. We use games to help ENGAGE the dog and structure activities to build success and trust, like maneuvering agility or play equipment, learning useful tricks, and even veterinary and husbandry behaviors to help at the vet's office!
I love showing owners how to have fun while teaching their dogs the important Life Skills necessary to survive in our very human world. I use techniques which incorporate helping the dog Learn to Earn rewards (food, treats, toys, freedoms, praise, snuggles, etc) - everything you likely already give them for free, but all the while building their confidence and understanding of our very human world, much different from their own, all the while learning new skills and manners that will last a Lifetime without you purchasing aversive equipment or collars.

We focus on developing a solid foundation of understanding, so that our favorite obedience, "naked obedience," is established as quickly and as fun as possible, even in distracting environments, without having to rely on the leash and collar...making it eventually obsolete. Over the years we have learned many ways of building and proofing obedience habits and continue to expand our knowledge every day through our experience in the veterinary medical field, participation in continuing education seminars, through class instruction at local training facilities,and through trials and competitions with our own dogs. When searching for a "trainer" we believe experience matters...and not necessarily the amount of years they have been in business (although Julie has been actively interested in and practicing behavior modification since 2001)...but by what they can demonstrate with their own pets, as well as their clients. We strongly urge our potential clients to call around, research, and go observe training sessions before they ever attend one with their pet. We are more than happy to have you stop in on one of our local classes and observe us instructing at anytime. After the class has ended, we are thrilled to discuss what training options are available and which one is best for your situation.
Dog training is an UNREGULATED field...anyone can call themselves a trainer and can use any method they see fit. Unlike the dog training field, Julie is a licensed veterinary technician and is held to a higher standard because of her veterinary medical background. Unlike many trainers out there, she has taken an oath to Do No Harm. Furthermore, she is certified as a Level 2 Fear Free Professional and uses science-based and fear-free motivational methods that focus on relationship-based training, clear communication, and developing and strengthening the human-animal bond, based on trust...making leashes and collars obsolete. We focus on developing a solid foundation of understanding, so that our favorite obedience, "naked obedience," is established as quickly as possible using fun to help dogs learn problem solving. We firmly believe you should be able to use the SAME training method on ANY breed.
