Let’s set you and your puppy up for success, and a lifetime of enjoyable and fun companionship.
Online Coaching—I support your training
I’ll create a customized training plan for your puppy and your goals, then support you step-by-step via easy online videoconference training sessions, as you acquire your new set of puppy training skills. (No tech savvy required, I promise!)
Day Training—I train your puppy for you
I’ll design and implement your customized training plan, come to your home for each hands-on training session, and take your puppy on field trips to get comfortable with her new skills out in the world. Then I’ll transfer your puppy’s new professionally trained skills to you.

Each week I’ll map out simple steps to move your progress forward.

We’ll also problem-solve any puppy shenanigans that arise along the way. Video review sessions will provide a unique opportunity for me to experience your training sessions out in the world, and I’ll also check in with you via a shared online task list several times each week for a bit of extra support.

Each week I’ll meet with your puppy—starting at your home then moving out into the world. Using positive techniques to show him how to offer you his best behavior. We’ll transfer progress to you in a fun, hands-on session at the end of each week. Then we’ll use our two follow-up sessions to make sure everything is feeling good before we call it a wrap. My goal is to relieve the stress of your dog’s unwanted behavior so you can relax and have more fun with your new best friend.

Read the ASVAB urgent statement about the importance of early socialization.
Nothing gives me more pleasure than teaching my client’s dogs to behave. Whether in a training session or on a group walk, I seek every possibility to create positive learning opportunities. I am thrilled by the moment they get it, when you can see that light bulb switch on, when they understand good things are coming their way and they offer you their best behavior. Then doing the right thing becomes fun and training progress accelerates. Regardless of breed or age, I approach every dog with curiosity and respect. Because I’m passionate about getting the best results for both you and your dog, I look for the best in your best friend, and seek to combine the specific and unique ingredients that will help you live a stress-free, fulfilling life together.
The trainer is well trained!!! Learned! Experienced! Insightful! Intuitive! Not only can she train your puppy…you get trained too. It’s all part of the package and enjoyable as Sara is fun to have around.

Sara guided us through our Bernese Mountain Dog puppy’s first couple of months, and she gave us the start we were hoping for. She worked effortlessly with him, always showing patience, compassion and kindness.

Cool tips and hot tricks—and other generally useful info—for living your best life with your best friend.
Rest assured, I refuse to barrage you with emails or sell your address. It’s not my style…and I’m way too busy training dogs and their people! 🙂
