About Julia:
Hi, I'm Julia. I believe that life with dogs should be fun and rewarding for both humans and dogs alike. My approach to dog training is evidence-based, and as such, I know that it is possible for training to be effective, kind and fun at the same time.
The bond, trust and communication you have with your dog are the foundation for all your work together. I take a holistic approach to help you better understand your canine companion, and teach you how to communicate in a way that helps both of you.
I am happy to work with dogs of all ages and breeds, and I especially love working with puppies and adolescent dogs. My main passion in dog training is what I call "functional obedience", or helping you navigate life with your canine companion in a way that is stress-free, rewarding and kind for both of you. I also have a passion for canine sports including scentwork and agility.
