group classes We offer classes for puppies under 16 weeks, and for tweens and teens older than 16 weeks. We will also offer classes in canine nosework beginning fall 2021. Our classes are small and jam-packed with learning. We believe learning should be enjoyable and fun for both ends of the leash.

Dogs are my passion. I care deeply about the wellbeing of dogs and their people and am committed to using force-free methods, rooted in scientific prinicples about how animals learn.

I live north of town at the edge of the forest with my dogs TT, Remi, and Bug - my best friends and greatest teachers. I am inspired by the ancient philosopher Rumi, who said: Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray.
