The trainer

Founder Shane describes himself as a certified dog trainer who spent time as a full-time trainer in Big Dog Ranch Rescue's service dog training program. He trains with positive, science-based methods only, with plans built around each dog's triggers and personality, and every program comes with a written guarantee. He lists a VSA Academy certification, a dog emotion and cognition certificate and Pet CPR & First Aid certification.

Rescue work

The business has partnered with rescues such as Lady Luck Rescue, Palm Beach AC volunteers and Hospitality Helping Hands, helping fosters and pet parents with fear, anxiety, reactivity and adjustment after adoption. A free phone consultation is the first step.
