History
After aquiring personal dogs with challenging behavior issues and finding creative solutions, it seems my dogs came to me for a reason...but it wasn't until I was studying for a different career and found myself wishing to work with dogs, that I began my pursue that path. I explored grooming, daycare, kennels, veterinary hospitals, pet sitting, dog walking, looking for the place I could do the most good.Businesses that provided the best care, the ones I would trust with my own animals, were few and far between. Working in environments where I wasn't expected or even allowed to give the care these precious animals deserved, was frustrating and depressing. My response was to start my own business offering dog training, pet sitting. Over time, it became apparent that the training & behavior aspect was my special interest; the logical path was to further my formal education & expand my training services. The dream of training dogs & teaching people how to train dogs, has become a reality!
Specialties
For Dog's Sake! is a premium quality dog behavior and training service, that you might not expect to find easily. I am not a high profile trainer, and don't advertise as most of my work comes from referrals and word of mouth recommendations. I believe what sets my business apart from others, are my level of education, qualifications and experience in the field. A high level of personal commitment and responsibility to provide clients with the absolute best experience I can, sets my business apart from others who take a cookie cutter approach to their business. I not only impart skills, tools and tips in my instruction, but I work hard to tailor my lessons to the individual learner and provide what he or she needs to be motivated, succesful and accomplish their training goals. If that means writing a customized training plan, scheduling extra coaching, additional support via telephone and e-mail access or providing literature, video or online resources, I am commited to finding the combination of learning aids and personal instruction that will be the most helpful to each individual client. There are no canned responses to my student's questions! If I do not have a ready answer, I will tell you that also. And then I will find the answer!
