History
I created Happy Dogz in order to provide dog owners with exceptional training to fit their dog's needs. I used to teach group classes. Quickly, I realized that my passion lay in working with people and dogs individually so I changed course and my business is now private training exclusively. Now, every client gets a custom program designed just for them. One of the things that is important to me is providing my clients with the absolute best in training and behavior modification. To that end, I have earned some elite certifications to ensure that I am in the top of the industry and always stay up-to-date. In 2016, I earned the title of Certified Professional Dog Trainer (about 3,100 worldwide). This year, 2018, I earned a certificate in Applied Animal Behavior from University of Washington. And, I also earned the title of Certified Behavior Consultant, Canine this year. There are less than 175 in the world.
