Every dog is an individual, every family has different needs and training should reflect that. I believe dog training should never be one size fits all .

​

My goal is to help dogs and their owners build clear communication, confidence, and a strong partnership through science-based, ethical training methods.

 

I believe in training that prioritizes:

​

• Science-based methods

• Ethical, evidence-informed training

• Real-life world reliability and practical skills.

• Stronger bonds between dogs and their people

​

Many of my clients come to me feeling frustrated, overwhelmed, or unsure how to help their dog succeed. My goal is to give both dogs and their people the tools to Communicate clearly and confidently.

​​​

I am a Certified Dog Trainer (CDT-C) and a graduate of the International School for Certified Dog Trainers. I am currently continuing my education through CATCH Canine Trainers Academy, a nationally recognized dog trainer education program that provides professional training and continuing education for dog trainers.

​

CATCH programs focus on modern, humane, and science-based training methods, emphasizing canine learning theory, behavior modification, and practical skills that help dogs and their owners succeed in real-life environments.

I remain committed to ongoing education so I can continue providing thoughtful, evidence-based training for the dogs and families I work with.

​

• Certified Dog Trainer-Comprehensive working towards CCDT at CATCH Canine Training after completing their Master Class.

Breaking Bad Dog Training is also fully insured, giving clients peace of mind when working together.

​

Before relocating to Georgia, I worked with dogs and their owners throughout Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. Today I proudly serve clients throughout Carroll and Haralson Counties, helping local families build calmer, more cooperative relationships with their dogs.

Whether you’re raising a new puppy, navigating adolescent behavior, or working through unwanted habits, my goal is to give you the tools and guidance needed for long-term success.​

​

If you're ready to break bad habits and build a better bond with your dog, you're in the right place.

Training should make life with your dog easier, more enjoyable, and more connected—and that’s exactly what we work toward at Breaking Bad Dog Training. There is no such thing as a bad dog, we just break bad habits.
