Wendy and her dogs in a field near Lexington
Having fostered and adopted dogs with a variety of personalities and issues over the years, I've experienced many of the problems and frustrations that my clients face.
​
One of the many things I enjoy about training is discovering and leveraging the unique gifts and predispositions each dog and human brings to the training relationship.
​
I look forward to exploring these opportunities with you.

GSDs are big, strong, intelligent and full of energy
Wendy has taught me how to live happily in harmony with my dog, creating win win set ups, and how to channel and redirect my dog's energy, not squash it..."
