ABOUT ME

I carefully select the clients I work with. I focus on quality over quantity in the students who qualify to enroll in my Academy, and in the curriculum to ensure they enjoy working with me as much as I with them.

My goal is to leverage the skills and knowledge I’ve developed over 40 by coaching and mentoring my Academy students to grow as professional dog trainers to whatever level of success they choose to pursue.

I’ve had students who started from scratch and are now thriving as professional dog trainers, using the proven systems and approaches and following principles they have learned at my school.

It's time to take your learning to the next level and unlock your full potential!

DIVE DEEPER INTO

CERTIFICATION

The DTTA Certification is based on the gold standard set by the International Association of Canine Professionals (IACP) —only we’ve raised the bar with tougher case study requirements.
When you choose to get certified through DTTA,
you’ll build the skills to connect with clients confidently,
train pet dogs to a high standard,
and step into a role as a trusted team member or successful business owner—
all backed by an industry-respected credential.

LEVERAGING SOCIAL MEDIA

Use our expert marketing strategies to attract clients organically through social platforms.

No gimmicks—just real results from tried-and-true methods that actually work.

BECOMING A LOCAL

AUTHORITY

Become the local authority. When you position yourself as the go-to trainer in your community, you'll see more demand and be able to charge what you're worth.

It’s all about building trust and delivering results that keep people coming back.

ATTRACTING IDEAL CLIENTS

Attracting ideal clients is key.

I’ll show you how to target the ones who value quality training and are ready to invest in their dogs—and in you.
No more chasing, just working with people who get it.

ADD VALUE AND VARIETY TO BOOST YOUR REVENUE WITH VARIETY IN TRAINING PACKAGES

Offering solid value and variety in your training packages
is a smart way to earn more.
When you give clients useful options that fit their needs and budget,
they’re more likely to stick around—
and your bank account will thank you for it.
