Get to know Canine Insight 

With Canine Insight you won't just be signing your dog up to learn commands. 

You'll work on building your dog's trust, learn how to speak their language clearly, and become your dog's teammate. 

While obedience is important, we believe 
providing our dogs with the tools and problem solving skills they need to thrive in our increasingly modern world is one of the most important lessons both you and your dog will learn.

Hi! I'm so glad you're here. 

My career with dog's started after I brought home my first dog at 19 years old.  He had some behavioral issues that I was determined to learn how fix myself, like major separation anxiety thus inuring himself daily.  Working with him through those early years inspired me to learn everything I could about dog behavior and now I'm dedicated to helping dog owner's like you learn to love living with their dog's again. 

In addition to graduating Animal Behavior College in May of 2013, I've also volunteered at animal shelters across the US and have spent years learning from world renowned trainers. These experiences gave me hands-on experience with dog's of all breeds and temperaments and pushed me to go even farther.  I became passionate about learning the intricacies of clear communication with our dog's and how to use PLAY to build their confidence and our relationship with them. 

I specialize in: 

Puppy Raising

Obedience

Reactivity/Aggression 

Play-based training (super fun!)

Dog sport foundations

Public Access Skills

Confidence building with fearful dogs

Proper hiking manners on trails

... and more!
