I've been a dog trainer for over a decade, a mom for nearly two decades and a woman for my whole life. I know my shit and I can help you feel supported and empowered with and without that leash in hand.
Let's be real, your life with your dog doesn't take place in a classroom. It takes place in your home, neighborhood and everywhere you go. Get the training you actually need, where you need it.
Wellness and behavior are deeply connected. When your pup isn't feeling their best, they show you through their behavior. My holistic and wellness plan covers it all; nutrition, enrichment, training and holistic care all in one.
Dog training will help you break through what is blocking you from your dreams and get you living your best life with your dog. What would that mean for you, You Bad Ass Dog Parent?
I do get it. For real! You have tried this and that. Gotten advice from various people and free online resources.
You have seen some improvements, but you are still not quite there.
You want change and you want something that is actually going to work.
You have been running around in circles, not actually getting anywhere.
I feel ya!
AND I can help you!
Let's cut through the BS, get our plans put into actions, and make your dreams a reality!
I can tell you all kinds of things about me. I'm a single mom of two. I run a small business. I know my shit and bla...bla...bla
What you truly need to know, is that it isn't about me...it is about YOU.
I am here to support you in reaching your goals.
In the 10+ years I have been servicing the DMV area, it has been a pleasure giving back to my community. helping fellow dog lovers and their precious companions live peaceful and happy lives together.
I have had quite a few trainers and Colleen was 'by far' the best trainer. She listened and made constructive comments for me to utilize with Rosie. Colleen is very connected with Rosie and with that Rosie responded well to the training. She is awesome and I would use her again.
Colleen's love of dogs and her understanding of what rescues (in particular) need sets her apart from others. She took a very customized and focused approach to my specific concerns and was flexible in trying different solutions. Also, my dogs love her...four paws up!
Colleen was excellent and we would quickly and with the utmost confidence recommend her. Colleen has shown us the proper ways to deal with our Pit Bull Mix's aggressive tendencies and dominance issues in a mere few weeks.
I will give you a call for an in-depth behavioral consultation. This way I can learn a bit more about you, your dog, and your goals.
I will come up with a customized training plan that fits your goals, your dog’s needs, and your personal lifestyle.
From here, I will take care of the rest and get you empowered and your pup to being the best dog ever!
Here's the thing, I love to have fun and get shit done right the first time. I speak dog and guess what...you can too!
Strengthening your bond and communication with your dog is just the beginning. Have you ever desired to have the kind of communication with your dog that is silent, intuitive, and deep? It is as if you two could read each others mind. A trusting relationship with your pup that goes both ways. Trust, bond and communication is the framework we build our training plans around.
Each human and dog has their own story. I am here to assist you on your journey. Whatever your adventure looks like, I am your guide and coach to help you get there. I am your girl!
