Anne has completed her Principles of Dog Training Certificate with Michael Ellis and brings that knowledge as well as many other learning experiences into our programs.   Anne is always found diving into another online course or in person skills development for Agility and Pet Dog Training and  behaviour.  Anne believes there is always room to refine skills and knowlege in order to better serve you and your dogs.  She takes the time to find answers that she thinks will help you and your canine companions be more sucessful.  Each dog is an individual and training and management plans are adjusted as needed.
