Owner + Lead Trainer 

Not long ago, I was right where you are — feeling overwhelmed, second-guessing every decision, and desperate for real results with my first dog.

I spent months searching for the right answers, only to feel more confused by every video, book, and trainer I tried. 

It wasn’t until I discovered the Functional Obedience Method that everything changed — for me, and for my dog.

Today, I’m proud to help dog owners in Courtenay, Comox Valley, and beyond experience that same transformation. My approach is simple, clear, and effective — because training your dog shouldn’t feel like guesswork.

It should feel like building trust, one simple step at a time.
