Find Your Next Friend

Expert guidance to help you choose the dog that is right for you

Learning About Your Family

Once we start the journey to finding you your next dog, I'll provide a questionnaire for you to complete.

This will cover some basics about your home & your ideal dog!

Talking with You!

I review the questionnaire in detail and we schedule our first talk.

During this time, I ask any follow up questions and make sure every one of your expectations and goals is clear so I know your needs 100%!

Putting Together
Recommendations

With all the information I need, I spend time taking every one of your ideals into consideration.

I cultivate a list of recommended breeds for you - consulting with breed experts if needed.

If you prefer a rescue dog, purebreds do occasionally show up in rescue. I will also cultivate a list of specific traits I recommend so there is a clear idea what we are looking for going forward.

Second Consultation

Once I have a series of recommendations, we will have our second consultation!

I'll explain each recommendation and we can talk about what you love, like, and if there is anything you aren't quite feeling.

During this consultation, we will ideally choose your perfect pup breed/traits!

Making a Match!

With the breed/traits solidified, the next part is getting you to your pup!

Purebred Dog Homes:
You will receive recommendations for responsible breeders (not sure what that means? Learn here!) and we will discuss timelines and meeting the breeds/breeders.

Rescue Dog Homes:
With the traits you want in mind, I'll start the search for a suitable dog in rescue/shelters.

This option may take more time as rescues/shelters have such a large amount of dogs that need to be considered and evaluated.

Bringing Home Your Pup!

When we find the right fit, it is time for your new friend to come home!!

Each dog will have different needs based on their breed, age, and past

Our final step together is creating a plan together for the best training plan for your new companion!

Why shouldn't I adopt the cute puppy I just saw??

In my time as a trainer, I've had countless clients who share some version of

"I really love my dog... but my pup just ISN'T what I expected!"

Many people fall in love with a puppy or dog at first sight, but are unfamiliar with some important things that would help them make the right choice.
