✨Trainer Highlight✨
Hi I’m Eryka, one of our trainers and daycare manager here at Paw Talk🐶 Proud golden retriever mom to the best trio around: Odi, Boogie, and Banks💛
Odi is my calm and sweet boy — the one who’s been with me through it all, who’s an old man at heart! Boogie brings the laughs, chaos, and has taught me patience in moments when training has become overwhelming… it happens, even with our own dogs! And Banks? Well she’s just Banks, she brings a little bit of everything! Raising this girl feels different — and in the best possible way🥹
She doesn’t even know how lucky she is to be raised by the trainer I’ve become! I didn’t get everything right with Odi and Boogie like how every dog is different, the importance of ethical breeding, and how each dog has different needs. But they’ve helped me learn so much — and now, thanks to them and the education and guidance, I’ve gained from Makayla! Banks isn’t just a fresh start — she’s the result of everything I’ve learned from Odi and Boogie, from every success, every mistake, and every hard lesson that shaped the trainer I’ve become and that’s something I’m so incredibly proud of!
We love going hiking, going to the river, kayaking, and occasional Dock diving or Fast Cat💨 I can’t wait for what the future holds for my golden crew and I🐾Training, bonding, and just having fun — this is what it’s all about.
