Description

I am Ashley, Certified Canine Behavior Practitioner and Dog Trainer

There's nothing I love more than helping people enjoy their dogs more by helping them create meaningful behavior change and building stronger communication!

I have been training dogs for over 8 years and always seeking further education for myself to help the people and dogs in my community in Northern Michigan. I currently do most of my training around Grand Traverse county area and offer virtual courses worldwide!

My training methodology is rooted in canine behavior science but practical for you to fit into your lifestyle. I strive to create a fun, compassionate, judgement-free space for both ends of the leash!

Trainer Bios

Hello! I'm Ashley
I’ve always been fascinated by why dogs do the things they do.
That curiosity led me to pursue a diploma in canine behavior and it continues to drive me today as I help dogs and their humans enjoy life together to the fullest.

My mission is to create a safe, supportive space for dog guardians and equip them with the same practical, easy-to-use tools I rely on to train and manage my own dogs. I understand how overwhelming it can feel to live with a dog who has behavior challenges- but it doesn’t have to stay that way.

When you work with me, you’re not just getting a certified canine behavior practitioner and dog trainer. You’re getting a coach who believes training should fit into your life, not take it over. I believe dog training should be fun, rewarding, and something you share with your dog not something you do to them.

I share my life with a goofy mutt named Rue and a high-spirited, fun-loving Border Collie named Renly.

I can’t wait to meet you and your pup and hear all about your amazing goals!
