Establish a Bond

At North Country Canine Academy, we are passionate about building a strong and lasting bond with your pet.

With over eight years of professional experience, I am passionate about helping dogs and their owners build strong, lasting relationships through humane, effective, and modern training methods. My work is fully aligned with Animal Welfare Laws and guided by a deep understanding of canine psychology and cognition.

I am a proud graduate of the NePoPo® Silver School, as well as both my first and second NePoPo® Gold School programs—prestigious achievements that reflect my commitment to excellence and continued professional growth. I have completed Cameron Ford’s 40-Hour Nose/Scent Work Trainer Level 1 course and bring specialized experience as an explosion detection handler, further strengthening my expertise in scent work and working dog development.

My ongoing study of canine psychology allows me to better understand how dogs think, learn, and problem-solve—enabling more effective communication, engagement, and long-term success in training.

Whether you’re facing challenges with behavior, starting fresh with a new puppy, or looking to strengthen your bond with your dog, I’m here to help you create a confident, well-behaved, and happy companion.

Effective Pet Training Methods

I specialize in behavioral modification, obedience training, and puppy socialization.

Offering fully customizable programs tailored to the unique needs of each dog and family. By combining balanced, science-based techniques with patience, compassion, and clear communication, I ensure that training is a positive and rewarding experience for both pets and their people.
