Fear Free

I use positive reinforcement training methods, backed by the latest science about dog behavior. I don’t use fear, intimidation, or pain to train your dog.

Family Friendly

Positive reinforcement training is family friendly. I welcome (and encourage!) your entire family to participate in your dog’s training program.

Fun

A good relationship with your dog is at the heart of a successful training plan. That’s why I make sure that training is fun for you and your dog!

“Eryn is a pro, a true natural, and the biggest blessing when it came to training my young puppy! She has a gift not just with training dogs but in seeing the dog’s signals and thought processes, and clearly communicating those to the owners. She breaks things down in such a way that the humans are able to understand the dog and the dog is able to understand the humans, and both sides are able to enjoy the training process. With Eryn’s guidance and insights, teaching my boy and watching him grow and learn truly became such a fun experience. We (the humans and canine alike!) thoroughly enjoyed working with Eryn—this is truly her calling, and her passion and talent for it are indescribable. I can’t recommend her enough!”
