Hello, my name is Sandy, and I am a LIMA dog trainer with a passion for balanced, positive reinforcement and force-free training methods. As a dog trainer, I have many years of experience working with dogs of all breeds and sizes, helping them become well-behaved, confident, and happy pets.
At the heart of my training philosophy is the belief that dogs thrive when they are treated with respect and kindness. As a LIMA dog trainer, I strive to use the least intrusive, minimally aversive techniques to achieve training goals. I understand that every dog is unique and requires an individualized approach to training.
​
Over the years, I have worked with dogs with a wide range of behavioral issues, including separation anxiety, aggression, fearfulness, and excessive barking. I have a proven track record of success and have helped countless dogs become well-behaved, happy, and healthy members of their families. I believe in empowering pet owners with the knowledge and skills they need to communicate effectively with their dogs and build a strong bond based on trust, respect, and love.
When I'm not training with client dogs, you can find me in Obedience & Rally Trails with my dog, Thor, walking the beach with my husband or shopping. I am dedicated to improving the lives of dogs and their owners and would be honored to help you and your dog achieve your training goals.
(LIMA means: Least Intrusive Minimally Aversive)
