🐾 Puppy & Beginner Class Starting Soon! 🐾

I’ll be starting two new Puppy & Beginner group classes at Meridian Habitat Park in Puyallup:

• Thursday, May 28th @ 6:30 PM
• Saturday, May 30th @ 10:00 AM

These classes are perfect for:
• Puppies
• Newly adopted dogs
• Adolescent dogs
• Dogs needing help with focus, manners, and confidence around distractions

Over the 6 weeks we’ll work on:
• Sit, down, touch, and recall
• Loose leash walking
• Engagement and focus
• Leave it & impulse control
• Confidence building
• Calm behavior around people and dogs
• Real-world obedience skills

My goal is not just obedience, but helping owners better understand how to communicate with and work with their dogs in everyday life.

Classes are held outdoors to help dogs learn in a real-world environment with healthy distractions.

Spots are limited. Message me or register through my website below:

🐾 Puppy & Beginner Class – Starting May 14th 🐾

Raising a puppy or young dog can feel overwhelming sometimes — especially when you’re dealing with pulling, biting, jumping, overexcitement, or a dog that listens at home but struggles once distractions are involved.

This 6-week outdoor class is designed to help dogs learn practical skills in real environments while also helping owners better understand how to communicate with their dog clearly and effectively.

📍 Meridian Habitat Park (Puyallup)
📅 Thursday, May 14th
⏰ 6:30 PM
📆 6 weeks

What we’ll cover:
• Engagement & focus around distractions
• Loose leash walking
• Sit, down, recall, and impulse control
• Proper greetings, socialization, and neutrality
• Puppy biting, jumping, and unwanted behaviors
• Building confidence and better communication

🌿 Why outdoor training?

Because dogs don’t live in perfect indoor environments. They live in the real world.

Training outdoors helps dogs learn how to work through distractions, stay engaged, and build confidence in everyday situations — not just inside the house.

My approach combines structure, communication, and real-world training to help dogs and owners build a healthier understanding of each other.

💲 Cost: $220
Payment due on the first day (cash, check, Zelle, or Venmo)

Puppy & Beginner Group Class 🐾

For puppies and beginner dogs who need a strong foundation — or a reset.

This class is about more than just teaching commands. We focus on building real-life skills that help dogs make better choices, regulate their energy, and feel calm and confident in the world.

Our goal is not just obedience, but a strong relationship, clear communication, and a dog who can think instead of react.

What we work on:
• Engagement & focus
• Impulse control (leave it, wait)
• Loose leash walking & leash pressure
• Proper greetings
• Neutrality around dogs and people
• Puppy biting, chewing & potty training
• Confidence building
• Sit, down, wait & recall

This is a fun, supportive group class that gives you the tools to build a calm, connected dog — not just in class, but in real life.

📍 Location: Graham Hay Market
📅 Start date: Thursday, Feb 5th @ 5:30 PM
💲 Cost: $220

✨Website Update & Looking Ahead to 2026✨

I’ve made some thoughtful updates to my website to help everything flow more clearly — from how my services are organized, to how clients can find the support that best fits their dog and household.

My goal has always been to create training that feels supportive, intentional, and grounded in real life — not overwhelming or one-size-fits-all. These updates reflect that vision and make it easier for the right people to find their way here.

As we move into 2026, I’m feeling really excited and grateful for the dogs and people I’ll get to work with. I’m looking forward to continuing to support teams who are ready for clarity, connection, and lasting change.

If you’re curious, feel free to explore the updated site or reach out with questions. 💛

I just published a new piece on something I see almost every day:

Dogs who look fine on the outside… but are carrying so much in their bodies.

Reactivity isn’t a behavior problem — it’s a nervous system story.
And real change begins where safety begins.

If you’ve ever loved a reactive dog, or wanted to understand what’s really happening beneath the surface, this one is for you. 🐾🦮

Why real change begins in the body, not the behavior.

I wrote something today that feels really close to the work I’m doing in my life — with dogs, with people, and with myself.

Presence over pressure.
Connection over control.
Attunement over overfunctioning.

If you want to read the full reflection, my newest Substack piece is up. 🐾💛

What Dogs — and people — Teach Us About Showing up Without Over functioning

If you have a chance, give this a read and let me know what you think ! 💙

How our inner state shapes our dogs' behavior — and why presence matters more than cues.
