About Me
Realistic Dog Training specializes in personalized 
in-home dog training, providing tailored solutions to transform your dog into a well-mannered companion. With a focus on positive reinforcement and effective communication, my goal is to train the pet parent to SPEAK DOG! I understand that every dog is unique, and my customized approach ensures that both you and your four-legged family member will benefit from a strong bond built on trust and understanding. Consistency is key to training positive behaviors so a team effort is important for positive outcomes.  My background has been in the veterinary industry for over 30 years in practice, veterinary pharma sales, pet grief support, canine nutrition and as a small pet service business owner and certified dog trainer since 2014. I am a Professional Member of the International Association of Canine Professionals and PetSaver CPR & First Aid Trained.
