About Arianna
I have always had a passion for dogs and the bonds we share with them. From a young age, my dad showed me the power of man’s best friend and the responsibility that comes with caring for them. His example inspired me to pursue this work and see if I was truly capable of helping dogs and their owners. While it has proven to be one of the hardest jobs I’ve ever taken on, it has also become one of the most rewarding. I’m grateful to the Lord for the opportunity to grow through this work and to serve both dogs and their families.
I believe dogs thrive when they have clear leadership and guidance from the people who care for them. My goal is to help owners step into that role with confidence so their dogs can live calmly and successfully in the human world. Through practical training and clear communication, I help dogs and their families build the kind of companionship that makes life together truly enjoyable.

GOT QUESTIONS?
Frequently Asked
Everything you need to know before booking.
What age should my dog start training?
Dogs should begin training as early as possible. If you have a puppy, training can start as early as eight weeks. That said, it’s never too late to begin.
Do you train puppies and older dogs?
Yes. Dogs require different approaches depending on their age and circumstances. I tailor my training to each dog and help you determine the best path forward for both you and your dog.
What training methods do you use?
While I do use positive reinforcement, it is not the foundation of my philosophy. Dogs are intelligent and need clear guidance to navigate the human world in a healthy and safe way. My approach goes beyond basic training and focuses on rehabilitation, growth, and helping you and your dog build a strong, lasting bond as a team.
How long does training take?
Training timelines vary depending on your goals. For basic obedience or troubleshooting, I typically recommend four to six one hour sessions, along with consistent daily practice. For therapy or service work, we can discuss a more specific timeline after your initial consultation.
Do you work with reactive or difficult dogs?
Yes. Many of the dogs I work with need help with anxiety, overexcitement, or reactivity. We will start with a conversation to understand what is going on and create a plan moving forward. If your dog shows severe aggression toward humans, I may recommend working with a specialized behaviorist.
Will I be involved in the training?
Absolutely! My training is just as much for you as it is for your dog. A strong relationship requires clear leadership, and I will guide you in becoming the confident leader your dog needs to improve behavior and strengthen your bond.
Where do the training sessions take place?
Training can take place in a variety of environments depending on your goals. For obedience, sessions in the home are often most effective since that is where many issues occur. For building confidence outside the home, we may train in parks, walkable areas, or dog friendly stores like Home Depot, Lowe’s, or Barnes and Noble. Service and working dogs also train in real world environments to prepare for testing.
What should I bring to a training session?
For your first session, please bring your dog’s vaccination records. Your dog should be on a non retractable leash of about four to six feet and have a secure collar or harness. We can discuss equipment options and I can provide recommendations. Please also bring your dog’s favorite treats and wear comfortable clothing and shoes.
