Kind Dog Trainer
Cleveland, OH
Warning!
Using positive training may lead to well behaved and happy pup!
Hello friends! My name is Alina! I am a Certified Dog Trainer and absolutely love my profession. Currently I offer in-person (Cleveland, OH) or Zoom sessions for your convenience.
Little bit about me:
I graduated from Catch Canine Trainers Academy, which is one of the best in the industry. Before I continue, I want you to read my personal principles in dog training.
My number one principle/rule that comes always first: Use kindness and love. Always. Especially when in doubt.
Second rule: Use a reward-based method to build clear communication and strong bond between you and your pup(s). No, it`s not only tossing treats or relying completely on food! It`s a whole world of seeing your dogs for who they are and embrace it!
Third rule: Strong behaviors take time, practice, same routine, repetition, love, patience, freedom of choice.
Now you know me a little bit better, let`s continue...
Being able to help dogs was always something I wanted to do as a kid. Finally, I am where I am and ready to help You and your furry friend with whatever you are struggling with.
My goal is to help families when they don`t know what to do with leash walking, jumping, aggressive behaviors, chewing on furniture, excessive barking and other unwanted behaviors. I`ll bee there to guide you through the training process, so your dog can have a better life.
Getting a puppy? I build strong behaviors from zero to advanced, while creating healthy relationships and clear communication. Win-win!
If you adopted a dog from a shelter or rescue: making the transition from shelter/stray-life to home-life smoother as much as possible for both parties. I have a special place in my heart for pit mixes. All breeds and sizes are welcome here!
I love working and transform dog`s behavior and it`s truly magical to see the change! I want your dog to succeed and live a happy life! :)
