Short for "Beowulf" this is the most confident and rambunctious Norwegian Elkhound pup on Earth. Trust me, no matter how bad you think your situation is, this little monster challenges my skills everyday and keeps me accountable!

What We Believe in

My journey to becoming The Canine Coach has been shaped by a lifelong connection with dogs, from growing up surrounded by rescue animals to rediscovering my purpose through them during the most challenging chapters of my life. Working with countless dogs others had given up on, I learned that behavior is communication, and even the most difficult cases are simply misunderstood. Through years of hands-on experience, study, and mentorship, I came to believe that every dog has potential—and every owner deserves support. These experiences are the foundation of our Core Values:

1. Every Dog is a Good Dog,
We believe that no dog is beyond help. Every behavior tells a story, and with the right guidance, every dog can thrive. No matter the challenge, we meet each dog with patience, skill, and a belief in their potential.

2. Communication Builds Connection,
Training isn’t just about commands—it’s about understanding. We teach owners how to speak their dog’s language so they can lead with clarity, confidence, and compassion.

3. No Judgement, Only Support,
Whether you're dealing with a stubborn pup or serious behavioral issues, you're not alone. We welcome every dog and every owner without judgment—only the commitment to help you succeed.

4. Trust is the Foundation,
A healthy relationship between dog and owner starts with trust. Our methods are built on respect, consistency, and leadership that strengthens the bond—not fear or force.

5. Never Give Up,
We don’t quit on dogs—or their humans. With the right tools and mindset, every dog can improve, and every owner can lead. We’re here for the long haul.

6. Real Results, Real Relationships,
We care deeply about helping dogs live better lives—and that means helping people, too. Our training leads to real transformation because it’s about more than obedience—it’s about a lasting relationship
