Today Ashley is joined by Greta! She is a 2 and a half year old chocolate lab. Like many young labs Greta has a hard time keeping her nose out of the food and also finds it harder to calm down at home. Most people want a relaxed calm dog inside and a happy go lucky excitable dog outside and we have found training to be a great way to achieve that! By working the brain out inside we can keep dogs nice and calm, and by ramping the fun to 10 we can let them go wild! satisfying the needs on both ends to make sure Greta can be the best dog she can be!

Today Ashley is working with 7 month old Goldendoodle Snickers! Although cute as a button, Snickers likes to take his play time and dial it up to 12. Some of his favorite tactics being jumping, nipping, and destroying non toys. In a board and train program, Ashley has the time to set some of these things up in her home so she can be super vigilant and make sure we create healthy boundaries with the little guy.

Today on the agenda is DISTRACTION! It is the name of the game for Bailey here. Everyday life is not always quiet and boring, Ashley is helping Bailey know that even when things are exciting, manners come first. Big round of applause for the little girl, huh?

Meet Hudson! Today Ashley is training Hudson on his basic obedience commands to teach him structure in his wild puppy life. As most of you know, puppies do not come out of the box calm, respectful, and knowing their manners. It is up to us to show them the way to the best life and most success possible!

Today Ashley is training with a board and train Jackson! He is a 6 month old goldendoodle that likes to get into some mischief every now and then. Ashley has worked on curbing some of these behaviors and teaching him his obedience commands so his owners and him can share a working language. We have found that most families find balance when they have a common goal to work towards, and we use obedience as the goal.

Ashley always had a passion for dogs and helping others. In high school, she raised Guide Dogs for the Blind for her FFA project. She also volunteered at a veterinary hospital and was eventually hired as a kennel technician. Ashley worked at a couple of veterinary hospitals before deciding she wanted to make a bigger impact between humans and animals.
At 19, she was hired as a pack leader at a local boarding facility where she got to learn more about dog behavior. During her time there, her love for training and dog behavior grew. Ashley was eager to learn more, so she attended Animal Behavior College where she became a certified dog trainer. From there, she transitioned into her first dog training job, where she further expanded her knowledge and hands-on experience.
Ashley’s passion for animal training and behavior can also be seen in the dogs she has fostered. She continues to volunteer and foster for several rescue organizations.
She has two dogs, a boerboel, Honey, and a pit bull mix named Daisy! In her free time, you can find her traveling, hiking, and showing Honey!
