About the Trainer
Building Relationships that lead to Happy, Well-Behaved Dogs
Hi there!
I'm Christy, and I am passionate about helping dogs and their humans build strong, happy relationships. Here's what you can expect from me as your dog trainer:
-
Positive Reinforcement: I believe in using positive, low-stress techniques that reward desired behaviors and build trust between you and your dog.
-
Understanding Your Dog: I emphasize reading canine body language to better understand what your dog is trying to communicate.
-
Customized Training: My classes are designed based on client needs, offering personalized instruction for each dog.
Why Positive Reinforcement?
Positive reinforcement training motivates your dog to learn by rewarding good behavior. It's a powerful tool that creates a positive association with training, making it enjoyable for both you and your dog.
Adverse techniques such as prong/pinch, choke and shock collars can cause a dog to become fearful or aggressive. Once the dog becomes afraid of the owner who shocks him, the dog may retaliate on another animal (or even a child) in the home.
Train with a trainer that uses methods scientifically proven to be the most effective way to train your dog!
My Journey with Dogs:
-
Multiple years of experience training my own 14 dogs (throughout the years) (shown below), foster dogs, and countless clients' dogs.
-
Extensive training and certifications: I've continuously expanded my knowledge through workshops, apprenticeship with one of Atlanta's top trainers, and ongoing research.
-
Five-star rated business: Best Buddies Dog Training is built on referrals from happy clients, veterinarians, groomers, and behaviorists.
Beyond Training:
-
Pet Therapy Advocate: I'm passionate about pet therapy and have been a member of Happy Tails Pet Therapy organization since 2009. I I visited hospitals, nursing homes, universities, special needs classes and participated in the CHOA annual Christmas parade with my pet therapy pups. I have also served in various positions on the Happy Tails Board of Directors. Let me help you navigate the path to therapy work.
-
Rescue Volunteer: I contribute to local rescues by providing training support to foster dogs and new families. I also accept donations of anything pet related (leashes, harnesses, food, treats, etc.) that are given to rescues in need.
-
Dog Lover: I share my life with my husband and our FIVE furry companions!
