Sophie arrived as a fearful, unsocialized puppy who had never experienced human interaction. She was frightened, anxious and uneasy in her own body. Touching her was difficult, she would flinch everytime someone attempted to pet her. Although she grew quickly, her fears remained. She developed behavioral issues such as resource guarding and would engage in fights with other dogs over food and treats. After years of dedicated work and with the guidance of trainers, she has transformed into a sweet, joyful girl who loves to be around people and play with other dogs. My aim is to assist dogs in becoming their true selves and help them lead healthy lives alongside their families. I am passionate about behavior modification and aspire to help free these dogs and families of their undesirable behaviors.
