We had a fabulous time! So glad to have Beau (1yo) and Bone (5mo) back, and Beau brought his brother Arrow (9yo)!

Bone is learning she can’t say hi to everyone all the time.
Beau is learning dogs and manhole covers aren’t scary.
Arrow is overcoming dog-fight trauma from COVID days.
Everyone rocked their obedience skills:
✅ Door manners
✅ Sit ➡️ Down, Stand ➡️ Sit, Down ➡️ Stand
✅ Leave It
✅ Loose-leash Walking & Leap Frog

A fun time was had by Bone, Jade, and Jude on this Easter Sunday!

So nice to meet a rep from the who will coordinate bringing dogs in need of some training and a break from shelter life! I have promised they can all come for free, and their newly adopted homes can also get 1 free.

Since I had some folks ask:
You can sponsor a dog by paying for their walk, if you like! I can look into how to make that tax deductible.
Otherwise, I consider this my donation of services to dogs in need.

Hi, everyone!

Tomorrow, Sunday at 9am, I’m hosting my weekly group training & pack walk combo. I’m a force-free dog trainer with a master’s in canine behavior, and I just moved here to Santa Fe. I began offering group events in California in 2012 and have since hosted over 1,000 events on Meetup with over 450 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reviews. Click the link below to RSVP, joining Meetup is free.

My pack walks are stuctured to help even mild-moderately reactive dogs still be able to learn and participate. We do a little decompression work, a little obedience, some parkour or tricks, and pack walking all mixed together. Thresholds and space bubbles are honored 💯 since we walk outside on trails and can be spread apart.

Puppies are also welcome if they have had all their shots. No major prior training required. You and your dog should be able to walk on a fairly flat trail for about an hour. If you’re not sure you and your dog are ready, please click the link below to find out more, or message me. We can do some 1-1 sessions to get you ready.

The cost is $20. I’m running a special where if you attend 4, you get the 5th one free.

Today, Terra taught Bone the 4mo puppy how to dog more politely.

I am so fortunate to have Terra. She does all the heavy lifting and I get to reward good choices. Bone had a thing about putting her paw over a dog’s back, putting her chin over a dog’s shoulders, and even bordering on mounting. All of which are very rude play invitations that could get her in a fight someday.

Terra is very fair in her corrections, and by the end of the hour, Bone was making much better choices about inviting play, and even learning to relax and stop being so overstimulated by the glee of having another dog to play with.

Summit is a reactive and I am so excited to help this smarty not be so worried about life.

Does every dog trainer feel like they get the CUTEST clients?! Meet #3 in my new hometown of

Look at those ears! 🦇

Sheba is a who has had e-collar training to help make her recalls more reliable, but it hasn’t worked! This is what I refer to as the “ball and chain” relationship on walks. She responded beautifully in our first session, and I am VERY excited to see this girl for my Foundations program over the coming weeks!

Meet Bone! My 2nd client in

Bone is an enormous 3mo Anatolian x Great Pyrenees mix puppy. She’s going to get even bigger, and be a shop ambassador. She needs to have very good manners, enjoy being calm, and highly social.

She already learned to love “school” rather than be “stubborn,” learned to automatically sit-to-greet a guest, stay seated for petting, and come when called — even when it means coming inside.

They’ve signed up for my 4-pack puppy package. So excited to see where we go from here!

Jade had her first session with me today. Her former name is Madeline, she’s from the . I love supporting and !

Ms. Jade was quite sure I had arrived to murder everyone, but we became fast friends and the dog who could never down learned to auto settle in about 5 reps! I love minds! Such a good girl with

Her Mom is so committed, I’m very grateful to have them in my roster during my 50% first session sale as I rebuild my roster here in

Our Story

Tasha has over 20 years personal experience training dogs, and over 10 years professional experience. She got her start pet sitting for a neighbor’s poodle at $1/day as a little girl, and graduated to dog walking in 2010, and finally dog training in 2011. She had been volunteering her training expertise for REGAP, a greyhound rescue in Michigan, before moving to California and offering her services professionally. It truly is a calling for her, and her passion for force-free methods is a perfect example of her kindness, creativity, and encouraging nature when working with dogs and their owners.

Dog walking services are available from $25 - $65, depending on if you want 30, 60, or 90 minute walks. Packages are available if it’s going to become a regular schedule. Training on basic manners is included, and involves: sit, down, stay, release, focus, come when called, and leash manners. Every dog gets a report card after the walk, and time + distance are verified via an app. Tasha will even let you know if your dog “took care of business.”

She’s a Certified Trick Dog Instructor through the Do More With Your Dog organization by Kyra Sundance, and has experience with puppies, basic manners, obedience, tricks, beginning sports such as agility and nosework, service dogs, therapy dogs, emotional support dogs, and behavior modification for shy, reactive, fearful, and aggressive dogs. Tasha has put Advanced Trick Dog and Burnout Disc Dog Champion titles on her dogs. She hopes to compete with her golden retriever, Takoda in Rally & Obedience as well as get his CGC before he becomes a full-fledged service dog for her anxiety.

Tasha founded IDOGS, a Meetup group, to help dogs with socialization. You can prepare for the CGC test, the IAADP service dog public access test, and even help your reactive, aggressive, or just overly excited dog learn to get over their triggers -- whether it’s other dogs or people. It’s just $5/year membership that includes free hikes and access to members-only how-to videos, and the classes are a drop-in schedule of only $10.
