you have a puppy and i have patience

simply put: hire the trainer that loves the puppy stage.

Puppies are my jam. They’re also little bastards that drive humans crazy from time to time. Usually that crazy-making is caused by a lack of understanding of the puppy behaviour that is usually normal. But then sometimes it’s not normal. Then you go online and try and find your answers but what’s worked for one person, didn’t work for another and then what? Who do you listen to?

This is where I come in.

By hiring me to help you with your puppy woes, we’re cutting the crap. I can spend time with you and your puppy, know what you need to put you time into and what you don’t need to even bother with.

Your puppy is an individual so what works for them isn’t obvious for most. Many trainers or advice givers out there have only raised a pup or two. Me? I’m damn near a Duggar of Dogs.

Whatever your pup is throwing at you, I’ve had the same stuff hucked at me.

THE solution

I’m Amanda, The Dog Intuitive, and I will guide you in creating clear communication with your pup in a way that they understand and makes sense to them. Dogs are super simple: either you lead; or they will.

It’s not at all about dominating dogs. In fact, showing up for them and being as clear and consistent as a human can be, will get you closer to your training goals.

This is what I teach.

Strict Obedience may keep your dog under your thumb, but wouldn’t you rather have them in the palm of your hand?

HERE’S HOW:

It’s time to Dog your Dog. As someone who has been studying dogs my entire life, I am able to understand them at a very high level. By teaching you the why behind your dog’s behaviour, you’re able to have a deeper understanding and then, working together, a realistic training plan gets built.

You have a life, your dog has needs, and I help you strike a realistic balance so it’s a happy home.

Testimonials Training

Our experience with Amanda was perfect! We touched base with her when we adopted a special-needs pup, Jessie, who has Cerebellar Hyperplasia. Jessie is a slow learner and developed some tricky habits - a lot of chewing shoes, nipping and biting and peeing on the floor. Amanda really helped us get in touch with our energy and Jessie’s. Listening to her vast knowledge was invaluable - we soaked it all in and she answered all of our questions, even the ones we thought were kind of silly! Once we put into practice the things we learned, Jessie’s little behaviours weren’t so hard to handle! In fact, we almost felt like experts ourselves! I wouldn’t hesitate to call Amanda for any dog “issue”, large or small! Thanks Amanda! ♥️

-TERRI

If it weren’t for working with Amanda, our rescue pup Kevin might not still be with us in our home. When we brought him home from the rescue, he was fearful, aggressive, person guarding , and had no manners. We knew we were out of our league. We contacted Amanda and she came to our home where she taught us how to gain his trust with disciplpine and patience. It wasn’t easy, but we can say Kevin is a very big part of our famly – we cant imagine our lives without him – he’s brought countless hours of “life with kevin” moments.
