About Us

With a strong background in veterinary care and a deep passion for canine behavior, I bring a unique perspective to dog training that prioritizes both physical health and emotional well-being. My experience in the veterinary field has given me invaluable insights into the science behind animal behavior, allowing me to tailor training methods that are not only effective but also compassionate.

I believe in force-free training—an approach rooted in positive reinforcement, clear communication, and mutual trust. By focusing on reward-based techniques, I help dogs build confidence, strengthen their bond with their owners, and develop lasting, desirable behaviors. Whether you’re working through basic obedience, behavioral challenges, or advanced training, my goal is to create a stress-free, enjoyable learning experience for both you and your dog.

I am committed to helping dogs thrive in a way that respects their instincts and individuality. Through science-based, ethical training, I empower pet parents with the tools they need to build a lifelong relationship of trust and understanding with their furry companions.

Cooper is a 3 year old rescue who ended up being a pure breed Australian Shepard. You will see him when doing temperament testing and playing with the dog selective dogs.

Whiskey was the best dog and loved with his entire being. He was always there to offer kisses and a wiggle butt to anyone who came across his path. He will forever be a part of K9 Zen's core values!
