Hi! 👋 I'm Tara
KPA-CTP, Fear Free Trainer, ABCDT, ABCPG
Tara combines her passion for gentle training, strategic behavior modification, and her knowledge of grooming practices to help dog guardians achieve calmer dog grooming that feels easy.
THIS will get you more results than anything else
Most dog trainers do not prioritize filming but this is the only way to KNOW if you are making progress along the way. I sit down with my private coaching students to review their training footage with them. Without filming and reviewing, you will miss important data that shows you to keep going or when to adjust your criteria/expectations. I won't just tell you what I see, I'll ask you more questions than I give answers. This is my opportunity to help you put the education I share into practice. This is your journey with your dog. It is important to me that I keep you in the driver seat, I just have the map until it's time to pass it off to you!
Trainer & Groomer in ONE!
I won't just teach you how to train your dog with the intent to cooperate for grooming; I actually know what will be necessary for the end-behavior thanks to my five years of grooming experience. One idea that I am often UNteaching is the desire to practice duration in coop-care training. This is unnecessary because that doesn't actually happen in real grooming. Groomers are always moving and working around a dog. I teach students how to regularly add appropriate criteria and increase the difficulty when needed to simulate real tasks.
No more refusing treats due to stress because they will finally FEEL SAFE.
Sensitive dogs need more time but also the right approach to ensure they are not triggered during training. Rest assured that we will take it as slow as your dog needs even if that means taking breaks from sessions when your dog is triggered by other factors. I am prepared to meet you and your dog where you're at with what would work best for your sensitive dog so they can start to FEEL SAFE.
