Expert, force-free handling
I'm your hiking guide, Kaeli Grotz, KPA CTP. I'm a certified humane dog trainer and I'm skilled at managing reactive and shy dogs.
I use positive reinforcement and low-stress handling to give your dog a safe and fun trail experience. This includes using a long-line leash until I'm comfortable with your dog’s recall.
While I reinforce existing skills, this is not a walk-and-train service – explore our training services to build new skills.
We are insured with Profur and trained in pet first-aid through Walks N Wags.
We are happy to manage:
-
less-than-perfect recall
-
reactivity to people, bikes, etc.
-
food allergies
-
dogs who are selective about their dog friends
We can't accommodate:
-
puppies under 6 months
-
vehicle-related distress
-
e-collars, prong or choke collars, or any other aversive equipment
-
dogs with a bite history who are not muzzle trained
