Trajectory
Tressie is an experienced and passionate dog trainer who embarked on her training journey right after graduating high school, a remarkable 16 years ago. She initially obtained certification through Petsmart and managed their group classes and private lessons. After gaining valuable experience with the company, Tressie made the decision to establish her own training company, offering a wide range of services such as group classes, private lessons, and board & trains. Over time, Tressie's expertise expanded beyond basic to advanced obedience training as she delved into behavior modification techniques. Her dedication to continuous learning led her to assume the role of head trainer for a doodle breeder, where she primarily focused on puppy training and training other trainers. Tressie currently resides in NY and is delighted to be a part of our team. Tressie is well-versed in handling all breeds and facets of training, including puppy training, behavior modification, and basic to advanced obedience. Her extensive qualifications include being a CGC (Canine Good Citizen) evaluator, serving as the training director for a local Protection Sport Association club, and competing at a national level in this dog sport.
Choosing a career in dog training was a natural fit for Tressie, given her unwavering love for dogs. Despite initially pursuing a degree in Animal Science during college, her growing passion for training steered her towards a long-term commitment to the profession. Looking ahead, Tressie envisions herself continuing to assist clients and their beloved dogs. Additionally, she derives immense satisfaction from imparting her knowledge and experience to aspiring dog trainers, making coaching a potential avenue she would like to explore further.
