Are you having a ruff time? Your dog is speaking to you through their behavior. If you need help decoding Fido’s feedback, I can help bridge the communication gap.

Your dog wants information and snacks. Together we can turn barks into brilliance through obedience training with lots of play and nutritious treats. Obedience work does more than build a better dog; it also fosters a solid relationship between dog and owner. Let’s get busy.
-
Did you know that your dog’s gut is known as their “second brain”? A healthy gut microbiome is essential for your dog’s behavior. Most of your dog’s serotonin is produced and stored in their gut. I can give you tips and tricks to enhance your dog’s nutrition without breaking the bank.
-
Enrichment is offering your dog an opportunity to fulfill their genetic and psychological needs. It improves their quality of life by preventing boredom and stress while strengthening the bond between dog and owner. I can teach you easy enrichment ideas with items you already have at home. Your dog needs to do dog things; let’s get started.

My Name is Lara
I am a holistic dog trainer. My approach is built on the belief that training and caring for dogs should encompass their entire being, their mind, body and spirit. I focus on training and behavior change, and I also consider each dog’s emotional and psychological well-being.
I look at your dog’s overall lifestyle, including genetics, health, nutrition, exercise, enrichment and environment, because all of these contribute to behavior. Then I build an individual plan that respects both your dog’s needs and your life.
B.O.N.E.S. stands for behavior, obedience, nutrition and enrichment services and reflects my focus on the whole dog and household.
