Learning is FUN! I am a certified dog behavior consultant and certified dog trainer in obedeince, nosework and tricks. I am also a Service Dog Coach. I believe in science-based and positive reward-based training methods that create a fun learning environment for both humans and dogs. When you are having fun, whatever you do becomes rewarding and makes you want to do more of it. Through fun learning experiences, desirable behaviors are retained and repeated. My specialty is in working with anxious, fear-aggressive dogs and dogs with reactivity issuees. K9 Learning is based in Novato, CA and currently offers both in-person (in Marin) and virtual training (outside of Marin) sessions.

My goal is to help you and your dog achieve your training goals and build a strong, healthy relationship in the process. As a CPDT-KA Certified Dog Trainer, you can rest assured that your dog is in caring and qualified hands. I can't wait to meet you and your dog and help you start building a better relationship!
