Student Success Stories

I started Leader Of The Pack K9 Training with one goal in mind – to help as many people as I possibly can and to keep dogs out of shelters. I believe that if you have a dog, you are a dog trainer, whether you know it or not. My job is to help people recognize their role in their dogs behavior and empower them to make the right choices and reach their goals.

Dog training is an art and I truly love the process of teaching and guiding people to be better pet owners, understand their dogs, and ultimately to have better relationships, and live harmoniously together with them. My business is 100% client centered, with a truly balanced approach. The methods, tools and techniques I use are custom tailored to the needs and comfort level of each client and their dog. I work with all breeds, sizes and behavior problems.

My experience at Starmark was the foundation from which I was able to build a successful business. From basic to competition obedience, service training, trick training and behavior modification, everything that I was taught I have applied or utilized in one way or another. The most important thing I have learned at Starmark was to always continue educating myself outside of school, but never stray far from the fundamentals of what I learned in those 3 months. This has helped me to think outside the box, while remaining grounded and connected to the basics of how dogs learn and think. I will never forget my time at Starmark, it was the first step towards the fulfillment of my life’s purpose.
