Welcome the newest member of the Not Naughty Dog crew, trainer Hanna Smith!!
Bio:
Hanna’s journey into dog sports began in 2019 when she adopted her first dog, Gamble — a spirited Border Collie with a few behavioral quirks and an impressive agility background. Determined to help Gamble thrive, Hanna dove into learning about dog behavior and focused on building a strong, trusting relationship. Before long, the pair were back in the agility ring, and Hanna’s passion for the sport took off.
Over the next few years, Hanna and Gamble competed in agility, disc, UpDog, and rally events, with agility quickly becoming her main focus. In 2022, she added a new teammate — Clutch — and discovered the joy of starting from the very beginning, building skills and confidence step by step.
Hanna joined The Not Naughty Dog team in 2023 and now loves helping others strengthen their connection with their dogs. Her approach emphasizes fun, teamwork, and communication — creating a positive experience for both dog and handler.
