Trajectory
Suzanne has extensive knowledge of most dog training methods and is influenced by scientific methods including balanced training, positive reinforcement, and clicker training. She understands learning theory and how it can be applied to dog training in both puppies and older dogs. She started her career working with dogs through rescue and fostering and now has over 20 years of experience in training which includes puppy training, aggression and anxiety correction, and dog sports.
Suzanne also holds a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT) certificate and was one of the first 300 people to ever receive the title. She enjoys learning and continues to invest in continuing education and remains involved in top trends in education and new techniques. She currently has 8 dogs who are either actively in competition in dog sports such as flyball, agility, frisbee, and dog diving or retired. She also teaches both agility and flyball classes to local clients.
