Open Paw Dog Training

I subscribe to a force-free method for addressing fear, anxiety, and aggression by teaching dogs confidence and coping skills through safe, controlled exposure to triggers. I believe dogs deserve an active role in their learning, and that as humans, it’s our responsibility to honor their consent in the activities we share with them.

Common areas I work on include: loose-leash walking, desensitization to loud or stressful triggers, disengagement cues (drop it, leave it, recall), puppy obedience, and agility skills. I use behavioral science and applied behavioral analysis to create a science-based, practical approach.
