OTHER AREAS OF EXPERTISE

  • Building a Bond -> Sarah loves working with green handlers and green dogs, teaching them piece by piece how to become a strong team together. Training really is a team effort between a dog that understands the task at hand and a handler who can communicate effectively and consistently! 
  • Bite Risk Dogs -> Sarah works wonders with “bite risk” dogs, as she’s handled hundreds of them over the years. Safety and calm handling is something Sarah excels at! 
  • Neutrality -> Building neutrality is another extra special passion of Sarah’s. All dogs, whether social, fearful, or aggressive, are limited if they can’t exercise neutrality to strangers and other dogs when necessary. She loves to conduct “pack walks” as a structured way for reactive dogs to practice neutrality with one another.
  • Working breeds -> Sarah is a lover of working and sporting breeds and loves to help owners identify dog sports that suit them and their pup! Every dog was bred for something, and both dog and owner have more fun when those drives are being expressed.
  • Off leash reliability -> Sarah lives on a 1-acre fenced in property, the perfect set-up for safe and consistent off leash training!
