Hello, name is Sadie! With a total of twelve years of working with dogs, the beginning of my journey into the dog world started with doggy daycare! That is where I learned all about reading dog body language, and how to manage large groups of dogs. During my years in daycare, I also cared for the boarding and foster dogs. This has left me with experience with dogs that range in size, age, breed, and temperament. While I enjoyed what I was doing, I came to the conclusion that my true passion was training dogs! My dog training experience includes: apprenticing under a certified master trainer for six months, covering hands-on training, academics, and observation for obedience and behavior modification; I completed seven days shadowing Professional Dog Trainer, Jonathan Katz, covering forty-five hours of hands-on training and observation to expand my knowledge in obedience and behavior modification; I received a certificate of completion for Valor K9 Academy’s six day shadow program, covering sixty hours of academics, observation, and hands-on training; I completed 9 days shadowing Professional Dog Trainer, Jonas Black, covering academics, observation, and hands on training; Time dedicated to independent studying and learning over the years. Kaizr is my six year old mixed breed dog. He plays a big role in helping to train client dogs! We are always seeking ways to improve together! As a dog trainer, I will never stop learning and pursuing ways to advance my skills!
