Zach's dog training journey started in October of 2013 when he got his first dog, an American Staffordshire Terrier, named Tech.​​
Very early in Tech's life, Zach followed training advice that lead to Tech biting him multiple times on the arm. As he was searching for answers, he also learned that Tech was 100% deaf.​​
Determined even more to make sure he was doing right by Tech, he soon found the world of reward based training and it didn't take long for him and Tech to start having more success and start building a solid relationship through training.​​
Zach realized that the skills he learned could be used to help both people and dogs while building a strong community dedicated to their companion animals.

With our Private 1-on-1 lessons we come to your home (or meet in a public setting based on your dog's skill level) and take you through training plans step by step for the specific skills you want your dog to have. We discuss how you can continue practicing/building these skills between sessions and provide you with the support materials and training plans you need to get that done with confidence!
Day training is a great option for anyone who wants to hire a trainer and have them do a lot of the initial heavy lifting. Just like a Board & Train - except you don't have to send your dog away for weeks at a time. We do the training in your home and take your dog out on public training trips as they progress with their skills!
Throughout the process you will be included in 1-on-1 Transfer Sessions where you will be taught how to maintain and continue building on your dog's new skills and will be provided with support materials & training plans to feel confident doing that!
With our Virtual 1-on-1 lessons we meet with you through a Zoom call and take you through training plans step by step for the specific skills you want your dog to have. If necessary I will demo steps with my own dogs or pull up videos of me doing it with other dogs. We discuss how you can continue practicing/building these skills between sessions and provide you with the support materials and training plans you need to get that done with confidence!
