Ashlyn's interest in animal behavior began at 16 when she started working with horses, which sparked her fascination with how animals think and learn. Years later, her German shepherd’s severe reactivity and dog aggression led her to dive headfirst into what it takes to achieve true behavior change, determined to give her first dog a better life.
What started as a personal mission quickly turned into a passion, leading her to a career in helping dogs of all backgrounds overcome similar challenges to become the perfect fit for their families. With her own dogs, Ashlyn enjoys exploring the full potential of human-canine teamwork by competing in dog sports and including them in her favorite activities such as hiking, paddle boarding, and camping.
