Love Your Dog,
Again!
Overwhelmed? At your wit's end?
Feeling helpless? Don't know what to do?
Your beloved dog is not what you expected?
You need HELP!
Your dog destroys your home; neighbors complain. Your dog barks, lunges, growls, or exhibits other "aggressive" or anxious behaviors. Life with them is difficult! You need help with separation anxiety or a behavior problem.
Taking your dog to a class or having a stranger come into your home results in a meltdown for you AND your dog. Stop training IN the situation...train FOR the situation. Remote dog training is for you!
Whether you want a cuddlebug, adventure dog, or coffee house officionado, Stephanie's support and guidance will help you calm the chaos and enjoy time with your dog.
There is Hope!

Calming the chaos!
There is a family tale about how, as I learned to walk, I would balance myself by grabbing onto our beloved dog. Now, I know how lucky I was to have a dog that took such things in stride. That pup became part of the family a few months before I did and shaped how I see these amazing, sensitive, loyal and dynamic creatures.
Dog training and our understanding of dogs has changed so much since I used my beloved companion to balance me as I learned to walk. With new understanding comes the potential for increased connection with our dogs. I love to be able to pass on the latest scientific information and training techniques to the amazing families with which I work. One of the best parts of what I do is watching people's relationships with their dogs grow into loving partnerships.

"A trainer who understands both dogs and people."
At last! A trainer who understands both dogs and people. We asked Stephanie to help our young dog, Riley, overcome the trauma of having lived with an aggressive older dog. Riley was skittish, overly assertive, and highly reactive to stimuli. Stephanie's training and behavior-modification techniques have helped Riley -- and us -- become a happier, safer household. In the course of working with Riley, Stephanie saw that our other dog, Sophie (a 3-year-old chihuahua/poodle rescue) was also responding to her own traumas, though in different ways than Riley. Stephanie is now working with Sophie to help her be more comfortable and secure. What do I like best about Stephanie: she sets reasonable expectations, has good boundaries, and rewards & praises us (me and Riley!) when we get it right.

"Stephanie...gave me lots of tools to help with their anxiety..."
I rescued two wonderful but challenging dogs and I was struggling with their behavior. Stephanie helped me learn how to be a better dog mom and gave me lots of tools to help with their anxiety and over enthusiasm. I have used the tools that Stephanie taught me to help my dogs adjust to the arrival of my first child. We have all been able to blend together as a family thanks to what I learned from Stephanie.
