Description

Specialties

A deep, positive, trusting relationship with dogs is the cornerstone of our training. Dogs enrich our lives so must do all we can to understand and train them. A life-long love of dogs, and over thirty years of working with them in a wide variety of different capacities, I am passionate about helping others understand their canine companions. My experiences include training dogs in obedience, tracking, field work, agility and therapy dogs. Safe, effective dog training begins with Start Them Right, Inc. in Cary or PIttsboro, NC. Dogs should be carefully taught how to live in our society. Dogs think and understand from the canine perspective. Many canine behavioral problems result from a dog's confusion over what is expected. Reprimanding misunderstanding should never occur. We can teach you how to guide your dog to understanding what is expected and rewardable behavior. A deep, positive, trusting relationship with dogs is the cornerstone of my training. Dogs enrich our lives. WE must do all we can to understand and train them.

Business Owner

What sets me apart is that I am a Certified Professional Dog Trainer - Knowledge Assessed through the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers.  I have over thirty years of working with dogs in a wide variety of different capacities.  I began teaching Puppy Kindergarten and Beginner classes at Northwoods Animal Hospital in Cary in 1991.  Since that time, we have added Canine Good Citizen Classes and Therapy Dog Classes in Cary and Pittsboro.

Since 1985, I have been serving as a volunteer Region Coordinator for the North Carolina Puppy Raising Program of Guiding Eyes for the Blind. In addition to the responsibilities of Region Coordinator, I raised four puppies for Guiding Eyes.  I am a co-founder and active volunteer of PEP (Pets Engaging People, People Engaging Pets), a Pet Therapy group in the Triangle area.

Retirement from a career as a Certified Nurse Practitioner freed me to pursue my passion for dog training.
